In major litigation there are typically three to four lawyers on the caption and in the case. There is typically one partner and three associates. That's how it works in major litigation.
My point in listing the firm snapshot was to show, with evidence instead of "I heard," that the RIM lawyers are from an established firm. And the Partner who is in charge of the case is a specialist in these types of cases. Besides, I was in on the Court's website trying to get the Compaint, but it is not being posted. So while I was there, I screen captured the lawyer's page.
While you may not see the significance of this, I assure you that federal judges take note of who is who because that give the Judge a "preview" of whether a case has merit or not.
Bonus Tip: You were sleeping? I'd be worried about what goes on while people like me are lurking about. Better sleep with one eye open.
Seriously though, I only need about three hours sleep a night, so that gives me lots of extra time to cause trouble aka work on cases.
