I believe PTSC had to wait for the procedural steps of the appeals court handing the case back to the district court and the district court reopening the case which are formalities they have to do regardless of the merits of the case. This is PTSCs first opportunity to throw in the towel and the court says:

"If the parties continue to believe that the accused products do not infringe under the operative claim construction, they may renew their stipulation to a judgment of noninfringement
in lieu of filing separate case management statements.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: April 14, 2017"

Since the appeals court judges have said they believe the minor change in claims construction will not change the outcome of the case I expect PTSC or the defendants to renew their stipulation to a judgement of noninfringement.

If PTSC does not do so I expect this judge to agree with the defendants stipulation to non infringement as this was the judge that signed off on the initial claims construction which ended PTSCs chances of winning. In my opinion its over and this is simply a formality.
