I haven't read Florian's attached redacted Motion For Partial Summary Judgment yet, but if Koh were to grant it, the chipset licensing aspect of the case would be removed from trial, and established as of the date of her Opinion and Order as a matter of (contract) law. It's the purely contractual aspect that has me concerned. I suppose a review of the FTC Complaint from January 2017 would provide the answer as to whether a pure Breach of Contract case was pled, not only an Anti-trust case, but that begs the question how does such a pure contract case that Florian claims the pending Motion entails, fall within the FTC jurisdiction?

The FTC is claiming that there's no genuine issue of material fact existing as to QTL's contractual obligation to offer chipset level licenses to all chipset sellers who request one, and therefore as a matter of law the FTC is entitled to a judgment to that effect, without the need for a trial of the issue.
