On February 16 the USPTO issued a non-final rejection of all of the claims of the '104 patent that have been asserted by Oracle in this case. Oracle has until April 16 to file a response. Given the track record of Oracle's responses in these reexaminations, don't be surprised to see this reexamination result in a final rejection of all of the asserted claims of the '104 patent.
If that proves to be the case, then Oracle will be left with only the four claims of the '520 to assert at trial, and as we have pointed out before, the '520 claims are now facing limitation because of representations made by Oracle during the reexamination.
