Very interesting take on the patent situation. Thanks. I don't have access to the pleadings, so I don't know what claims have actually been dismissed. It sounds like Ericy has to dismiss its claims on the old patent and bring new ones on the "added to." Wouldn't this delay everything, since the patent office will take some time to approve or disapprove of the amendment? It sounds like, on the surface, you should be correct that "starting" over has a plus but a big minus--certainly for any other type of case, but patent suits are a special animal. Could be a delaying tactic to buy more time, cloud the issues in the suit; could strengthen Ericy case, but only in time. Thanks again, for your enlightening thoughts.
