*************
U.S. District Court California Northern District (San Jose)
CIVIL DOCKET FOR CASE #: 5:05-cv-00334-RMW
10/05/2005 74 STIPULATION AND ORDER of Dismissal Without Prejudice of Inotera Memories and Withdrawal of Motion to Dismiss, Inotera Memories, Inc. terminated.
Signed by Judge Ronald M. Whyte on 10/5/05. (jg, COURT STAFF) (Filed on 10/5/2005) (Entered: 10/05/2005)
Wild A** Guess or WAG
Inotera and Rambus have agreed that Inotera will pay if other defendants pay.
Inotera has decided that it does not want to spend tons of money on lawyers and would rather let the big boys battle and live with the results.
Rambus may have agreed not to seek treble damages.
The dismissal is without prejudice . . . leaving the door open for Rambus to file again if necessary.
Again, just a WAG.

Thank you "Donkey".........B A
There was a motion to dismiss made by Inotera pending before judge Whyte based upon jurisdiction. Inotera has no offices in the US. All Inotera product is sold to either Nanya or Infineon. After speaking with several respected posters on the Yahoo thread, their opinion is that Rambus wanted to maintain its credibility with Judge Whyte, realizing that there was no jurisdiction for Whyte in the Northern District of Ca over Inotera, withdrew Inotera from the DDR2 suit and opened up the October 14th date that was scheduled for a hearing with JUdge Whyte on the motion to dismiss based on jurisdiction. I would have loved to see another party settle, but I do not think it was the case.
Thank you for your comment.
