Re: I thought this was a federal case, not a state case. State rules would not be operative, I believe.

You're right, I was thinking of the Micron case. Sorry for the error. I had printed out the list of Rambus's responses to micron and had those in mind (e.g. move to dismiss for subject matter jurisdiction). I didn't have the header with the court on the printout, but Rambus's jurisdictional claims were likely claims that torts under Federal law were brought to a state court. Since the Hyundai case was brought to a federal court (as you pointed out), can we assume that the arbitration was voluntary, even if under heavy encouragement from the Judge?

Regards,

Dan
