Another litigation/reexamination combination

In the Eolas/Microsoft browser matter, the director-ordered re-exam came after the litigation. In the CNS/Silver Eagle matter we have a different permutation.

-->CNS Inc., maker of Breathe Right nasal strips, reported Nov. 24, 2004 that the USPTO will re-examine two of its nasal strip patents at issue in a lawsuit. This re-examination comes at the request of Silver Eagle Labs Inc., a company named as a defendant in a patent suit filed by CNS. <--
