Update on Sun/Netapp Litigation
Order Construing Claims in the NetApp v. Sun litigation

Mike Dillon, (EVP , General Counsel and Corporate Secretary for Sun) has been blogging about the on-going litigation between Sun and NetApp.

On August 27th, 2008, the Court held a "claim construction hearing to construe the disputed terms". After reviewing the order he says, "we were very pleased", and "the court agreed with Sun's interpretation on six of the disputed terms (two of which the court adopted with slight modification) and with NetApp on one."

Mike also states that, "the Court found each of the asserted claims in NetApp's 7,200,715 patent relating to RAID technology to be 'indefinite' ... In effect, unless NetApp appeals and this finding is reversed, the '715 patent is effectively invalidated in this case and against others in the future."
