Opty. How can you possibly say that what I wrote is "absolutely incorrect and misleading" and then go on to state that it has happened several times before? Doesn't that make YOUR post "absolutely incorrect and misleading" ? I mentioned it because (a) it is a legal possibility and (b) the current Administration has delclared an opposition to "patent trolling". I'm not saying that I believe this litigation to be "trolling" but in this weird world it is more than possible that others may lean that way to suit their own goals. I don't believe the judge would be swayed by anything other the legal merirts (based on the patents and the "domestic industry" factors) but I do feel that that the risk of a veto is more likely now than before given the declared position and the political climate. And, for the record, as a non-citizen (but taxpayer nonetheless) I am not making a statement against one political party or another. Everything is factual, which I admit is often a rarity in this forum.

OPTY WROTE:
That statement is absolutely incorrect and misleading.
During this review period, the President can veto the ITC determination for policy reasons, however such vetos are extremely rare.
I believe there has only been 5 instances of a President overriding the ITC decision.
