Federal Circuit dismisses ParkerVision appeal vs Qualcomm for lack of jurisdiction; case remanded, $440M sought
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- CAFC dismissed ParkerVision's expedited appeal for lack of jurisdiction and remanded the Qualcomm case to the Middle District of Florida, declining to rule on the merits.
- ParkerVision says its expert report supports approximately $440 million in damages for the transmitter patent claims, excluding potential interest.
- Company will pursue a jury trial on the transmitter patent claims and preserve the right to appeal the receiver claim construction after a final district court ruling in the transmitter case.
- CAFC denied ParkerVision's request to assign the case to a new district court judge; CEO Jeffrey Parker called the ruling procedural and said he remains confident in the patents.
- The order states that on remand the case picks up where it was before the district court's Rule 54(b) order, leaving it to that court's discretion how to proceed.
