GAB, I'm also aware of HG's SEC stint and - in the past - have used that marker to evaluate his actions.

I think you would agree that as CEO, IDCC investors would expect him to have intimate knowledge of the state of play of negotiations with NOK.

Even if his July 7 sale was serendipitous, the July 8 collaboration with Ericsson on the amendment (which could have been filed at any time after March 17 - and could have been in the settlement agreement) looks like too much coincidence (with the July 22 unsealing request) for my taste. JMO, JK

Lawyers do not worry about "shadows of impropriety", they worry about conviction.

"According to his bio, HG did a stint at the SEC. I doubt he would be foolish enough to cast a shadow of impropriety around himself."

I agree, he is likely using his knowledge and experience to work the money pump for all it's worth without actually ending up in jail. But the more often the legal line is pushed to the limit, the higher the chance that things will turn out unhappy.
