Slacker, in the ITC Opinion, reference was made to rulings by the Arbitrator, to the effect that Nokia`s Estoppel Defense(claiming Qualcomm`s sandbagging misconduct during the 2001 license negotiations by failing to disclose it had certain GSM patents), and Qualcomm`s right to assert its GSM patents against Nokia, are both arbitrable. That means to me that unless the Federal District Court Judge in San Diego rules upon remand that Nokia`s claim that the matter is subject to arbitration is totally devoid of arguable merit, jurisdiction flips back to the Arbitrator, who already has pulled the trigger on his determination that he has jurisdiction. I don`t like the posture of this case if it returns to that Arbitrator for a decision on the merits.
Perhaps an en banc decision by the Federal Circuit Court Of Appeals is possible, before and/or after remand to the trial Court?
