ATVI would not be precluded from raising other legal issues for additional msj's, assuming any had any merit (e.g., laches, obviousness, indefiniteness, inequitable conduct).

For more detailed information, please see the following orders, which were written by judges in the Federal District Court of Massachusetts in 2012 and 2011:

IP MSJ Orders:
July 19, 2013, Judge Gorton grants defendant Teva's msj based on a safe harbor provision related to generic drugs (not at issue in WDDD v. ATVI)(note that in the Procedural discussion, the time between Markman hearing and Markman order was about a month) - http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/USCOURTS-mad-1_10-cv-12079/pdf/USCOURTS-mad-1_10-cv-12079-3.pdf

May 24, 2013, Judge Saylor grants IP defendant's msj against IP plaintiff Keurig in a very good, 30-page order and memorandum, which addresses some of the common IP doctrines -- http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/USCOURTS-mad-1_11-cv-11941/pdf/USCOURTS-mad-1_11-cv-11941-1.pdf
