Fin: Based on the info in the article only: One- This Infineon case is only about Rambus' claim that its patents extend to DDR and SDRAM. Not Rambus technology itself. Two- The claim has always been that Rambus hung out at the JEDEC conference, and while every one else was discussing the greater glory of mankind, they snuck out and took patents on DDR and SDRAM. Rambus had their attorneys do it. The attorneys refused to be deposed based on attorney client privilege. Infinion ALLEDGED a crime/fraud. IF a crime is committed, there is no AC privilege. So it looks like the Judge conditionally allowed the attorneys to be deposed to determine whether a crime was committed (and also to see if Rambus really stole the ideas from the conference).
