re: "Their main leverage is time. Our is the patents and value. I just suspect this is a leverage ploy in the middle of this" phraseology was interesting ~ specialneeds
specialneeds is this the sentence you were inferring ?
ChanBond believes this approach fairly balances the needs of managing the current health crisis and ChanBond’s right to try its case before a jury. Indeed, with the Cox case already prepared for trial, the parties will be able to use the continuance to prepare pretrial materials for the Comcast and Charter entities trials. ChanBond fears that without scheduling dates for these first few trials, a global resolution of ChanBond’s claims are unlikely as defendants will continue to try to delay trial interminably. Indeed, ChanBond believes that merely scheduling these additional trial dates for Comcast and the Charter entities will assist the parties’ discussions with respect to a global settlement.
