Practical Effect of O2 Micro decision analyzed in order

By Michael Smith

Readers should be very interested in this recent order of Judge Clark's in Grantley v. Clear Channel, Case No. 9:06cv259 Download grantley_claim_construction_supplement_order.pdf in which Judge Clark discusses the practical implications for district courts of the Fed Circuit's recent decision in O2 Micro.  It has not been published, but it is well worth reading.   I'm out of the office and short on time for extensive analysis, but I'm sure Dennis Crouch or someone else will step in in my absence.  I'll try to post with more details tomorrow or Monday.
