While I agree in part with what has been articulated, one point is totally incorrect:

As a result, it is difficult for me to believe that the court will side with Acer — however, I must issue the usual disclaimer that I’m not a patent lawyer and am thus outside my field.

While the material under the motion may be patent-related, Acer's request has absolutely nothing to do with patents whatsoever, and is solely about the legal relationships between Moore, TPL, and Henneman regarding the documents - a fairly basic procedural issue.
