Q staunchly believes they have not infringed and BRCM staunchly believes the opposite. Therefore a settlement is highly unlikely prior to judgement. A good # of lawsuits start from the position you describe. But that is no indication that the parties will not settle. If settlement is in the economic interests of both parties, each will consider settlement throughout the litigation process, including trial, regardless of the belief each has at the outset. In my view, it is clearly in neither party's interest to take its battle to the mat, as each has to gain from settlement. I think the better question is where a potential settlement lies, closer to Q's position or closer to BRCM's. Each side internally knows where settlement may potentially be reached. It will be very interesting to see what comes of the 10/4 settlement conference.
