There will still be a trial on the issue of validity (this part was on infringement only) beginning Wednesday, but that second trial will only be important if the plaintiff appeals. Regards, Steven

Farber" <farber () cis upenn edu> Subject: Stambler v RSA goes to jury Dave, the patent trial Stambler v RSA Security et al went to the jury yesterday afternoon; a verdict could be rendered today. At issue is whether patents issued to Leon Stambler cover SSL, and therefore products that use it. I attended two days of the trial last week, my report, "Who Invented E-Commerce?" is at <http://www.spectrum.ieee.org/WEBONLY/wonews/mar03/stambler.html>. My guess is that Stambler will lose, but every lawyer I talked with told me that you can never be certain of the outcome when a patent case goes to a jury.
