At best, Judge Brewster really believes QCOM tried to hide evidence from the court. Accordingly he issued a decision, the language of which leaves no doubt about his feelings, justified or not. The choice of words raises issues of prejudice that could taint future decisions. Brewster's decision not to participate in future cases/decisions in my mind is an attempt to avoid the possibility of an adverse decision against QCOM being thrown out on grounds of prejudice.

A large award to BRCM (of the order of $1 billion or so) would reinforce the notion that the judge is extremely prejudiced and would also be grounds for an appeal (especially since the judge already doubled the jury award). Talk about taking the law into your own hands! An experienced legal team would know how to turn the situation to QCOM's advantage.
