So you expected Cliff to admit over the phone that yes in deed Leckrone/TPL reallocated ~$20M of the APL license to TPL... leaving at the most $5M for the MMP to be split.. if that was in fact what happened?
So TPL asked for $26M total.. then settled for $5M total? leaving $18M 'on' the table...
The redacted portions of the Hoge doc refer to: possible damage to licensing efforts if the facts enclosed within got out, especially the Exhibits... discussed Co B where the proportion allocated for MMP was reduced from 85% to 77.5% (which is probably Dresser after looking back)... and a separate lawsuit refering to DL's 'purchase' of ChipScale.. I thought long and hard about posting the doc at all because I didn't want to possibly contribute to damaging license efforts.. but then I realised when these docs where filed it was way before the HTC litigation where much of this came out anyway... So I redacted the parts that didn't have anything to do with Company A, imo Apple... since that was the issue Brian was being raked over the coals.. and everything in that doc refering to Company A is readable.
So PTSC sued TPL over what then? Did Cliff state how much the entire license was for? How much was allocated to the MMP, how much to TPL's porfolio? Ok.. so the MMP $ was testified at $960k and categorised under oath as less than 20% (not just under as you post) of the total APL paid.. so TPL walked off with $5M for their portfolio.. then PTSC and TPL split the $960k.. less expesses.. so, the numbers refered to in the Hoge doc regarding Co A weren't the numbers in the license.. why would they put those numbers in that document then? Why would they waste their time noting numbers that changed so drastically? 'We're gonna spend 4 paragraphs discusing these specific numbers in this Declaration.. but they really don't have anything to do with the final numbers...' What if TPL actually walked off with 90%.. that would put their take at $9M... that would be no where near $26M.. that make you feel better?
as per Lambert's preceding post... Patriot Scientific Corporation v. TPL, Santa Clara County Superior Court No. 1-10- CV169836, arising from TPL’s mis-allocation of a “mixed” MMP license to a major Silicon Valley firm, allowing TPL to appropriate for itself some 95% of the gross license proceeds... 5% of 19.5M is 975k.. gov't work..
I stand by what I posted...
