It’s happened twice before, so let’s see what the 2nd brings.
First of all this week will mark the third time DECN will be in front of the Federal Circuit court. The first time in 2013, I believe prior to your becoming a shareholder in DECN, the company as a defendant, won their first case in the Federal Circuit court, a Precedential ruling (new law) on what is known as "exhaustion." This sowed the seeds for two things that happened a little later, first in 2014-2015 (with two J&J appeals all the way to the Supreme Court) the loss of the J&J foundational patent which itself was the major cause of J&J selling off Lifescan because it left J&J open to suits from large competitors, or the potential loss of suits against these same competitors who sued J&J for infringement actions of their own (Abbott, Roche). And second, a cash settlement with J&J where they paid DECN who was the defendant, to end the case.
I know that you feel that any trained monkey can run DECN better. I also know that you detest Mr. Berman. You and J&J detest Mr. Berman for different reasons. J&J hates him because he was damn good. He beat them -- twice, and he will beat them again. He laid bare their $3 billion business which lead to J&J selling that division off. They paid him to stop. They paid a defendant and then granted DECN a license to their patents (what was left of them) into perpetuity.
So while you trash Mr. Berman on and on, with the knowledge that you or a trained monkey can do better, and blame him for all of the world's problems, just remember that J&J grants him grudging admiration. And they may be even more admiring of his tenacity after Wednesday, October 2.
He plans to settle the case against J&J. Will you continue to trash him for doing this --- you already started. Berman plans to close a licensing deal with Platinum and save their collective azzes. Platinum will admire him too. You, you'll sit on three message boards trashing him. All IMO.
