IMO: The Special Master after reviewing Nokia's "verified" response and IDCC's Reply, can recommend that the Court grant IDCC's motion for Summary Judgement to Dismiss the action based on Nokia's inability to Support the NARROW remaining issue granted under the Lanham Act.Of course my thoughts are simply based on the idealistic reasoning that Nokia's passing of Foul Gas will not pass a Special Master's smell test.
There is nothing to be sealed. Discovery is not filed with the Court, just a notice saying it has been served. In anticipation of your next question, I understand the discovery will be served on the Special Master per the Order, but that still will NOT be on file with the Court. Short answer, there is nothing for you to view.
Moreover, if anyone thinks this will remotely speed up the case, it won't. This is typical discovery questioning, Nokia will list every statement IDCC has every made remotely close to saying it has important or essential patents, and then give a catch all that Nokia needs more discovery to learn more. Happens all the time. It's routine. And, will not advance the case toward early resolution.
