Jay,

re: The Lexar Suit

The general counsel's name is not listed in any of the documents I found and the Lexar patent is not mentioned either (U.S. patent patent No. 5,388,083). Also, SanDisk's patent infringement suit (that I referenced) was begun in 1998, not 1995.

Also, the court locations appear different...

The current press release indicates the following venue:

US Patent and Trademark Office

as well as a "a three judge panel of the US Patent Board of Appeals and Interferences", not Judge Charles Breyer who is presiding over the suit I mentioned.

I am not certain, but it appears that there are several concurrent suits going on here.

I will double check my references here. I am still waiting for some faxes from a court document service I ordered over a week and a half ago.

This may explain why SanDisk is seeking "partial summary judgement" in the information I referenced recently. Perhaps this contested patent has been cut out of a "summary judgement".
