LocWolf, this is an excellent find! Thank you! This method of screening, predicting and monitoring prostate cancer, involves patents by Guyon (2018) and Albitar (2014) which were assigned to HDC. Based upon these issue dates, these patents should have a lot of life remaining, be highly marketable and be of great interest to our CEO, Dr. Alan Hauser.
Thanks again LocWolf and Happy New Year!

I understand, and share, your frustration, LocWolf. However, I don't believe that our CEO is at liberty to send out any form of communication to shareholders without Board oversight and approval. I wish it weren't so, but I think that this is the situation we find ourselves in.
I would like to wish you and all HDVY shareholders a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year!

They know who I am, where I live, what I drive and where I work. Theyโve sent people, discreetly that they didnโt think I knew/know or saw and overtly with comments in passing from strangers that I didnโt understand in context at the moment until after the fact. Iโve been followed. Not just .Gov, Big Corps. Easy to tell the difference. .Gov is curious and inquisitive/protective?, trying to figure me out. Big Corps are threatening. I know it. They know it, I know that they know, they know that I know that they know etc, etc. Iโve been living in a live cat and mouse situation (not a game or paranoid delusion) for 2 years. My nerves were fried. I was sir drinks-a-lot for a time. That time has passed thanks to prayer and Godโs grace. If they wanted me dead Iโd be gone but for that fact I wrote a letter to The Undersecretary and Director. Itโs on record. Might be a monkey wrench for the Big Tech Spooks Iโve encountered. If they do get to me Iโll just go hang out with my Mom, Dad and Daughter in the afterlife. The money is secondary. Of course Iโm fighting for it but itโs not for me alone. A lot of people I know are struggling financially. I will help them.
Another issue is this, thereโs been a shift of some sort in the world/reality we live IMO. Those NJ drones are not an aberration. My home State across the country is proposing to turn our National Guard bases intoโฆ Space Force bases. Somethings going on and .Gov either knows and theyโre not telling us or theyโre in the dark. Not sure which is worse. We can be prepared spiritually without the material things of life. Those rich people ainโt building bunkers for fun. I canโt imagine God would want us to lay down and give up but if thats the case so be it🤷♂️.
FYI Iโm not crazy (I donโt think?) and in person Iโm kind, friendly and youโd never know that this is what I think.

Milestones, Metrics & Merriment
Welp, folks, January 8th is the key milestone. This date is the completion of Dr. Hauserโs first six months, and the performance-based share award of 500,000 more shares of HDVYโs common stock.
The metric for achieving this award is the satisfaction of goals mutually agreed upon. I would guess one goal is getting us re-listed, or the completion of a licensing agreement.
Only then will merriment, comfort of joy ensue.
Loc, we could be pleasantly surprised, or we could go down in a ball of flames. Apologies for the metaphor mixing, but the rubber is soon to be hitting the road.

Buylow2, yes it would be nice to know why HDVY settled for such a paultry sum, when there was the expectation of so much more. But the fact is, as shareholders, we may never be privy to that kind of insider information.
Of course, one could always speculate and come up with at least two possible reasons:
1.) At the disclosure phase of the legal process, HDC attorneys could not identify enough proveable damages to warrant a greater settlement.
2.) HDC attorneys accepted a lowball offer from Intel just to get this nightmare over with, once and for all. They may have been thinking that a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Translation: They perhaps thouht it more prudent to accept a sure thing ($2.25 mil) than to gamble for more and possibly end up with nothing.
These are two possible explanations, however, there may be more. JMHO.
By the way, I fail to see how applying logic and reason equates to defending HDVY.

Good points, LocWolf, however, I might add that when the USPTO issues a patent, it grants that the patent owner has EXCLUSIVE rights to that invention, including the exclusive right to pursue the monetization of that patented invention. This is what entitles the patent owner with the right to sue in cases of infringement. At some point in this legal process, after infringement has been ascertained by the court, a Cease and Desist Order may be issued by the court. Your point is well taken, however, that a Cease and Desist Order should not be granted prior to a determination by the court that infringement has occured.

I think that I recall reading somewhere that one of the proposed rule changes under the new Trump administration, which would strengthen the rights of patent owners, is that patent owners would have the right to file a cease and desist order while their infringement case is being litigated. This would remove a huge incentive for the defendant to drag out the case, and it would increase the incentive for them to seek an expedited settlement.
Another proposed rule change that would speed up the process for patent owners, would be to severely curtail the IPR abuses at the PTAB. The IPR process is a legal maneuver used by defendants which can literally add years to the pathway to monetization.
Once a patent has been issued by the experts at the USPTO, it should not be subject to invalidation at the district or federal court level. Those courts should only be concerned with establishing whether or not infringement occurred, and if so, calculating and awarding applicable damages to the plaintiff.

LocWolf, I have not checked in on this board in a few days, so I am just now seeing the exchange you had with sunspotter. I do appreciate your kind words in reference to me. I think that sunspotter knows that I have no affiliation with VPLM or HDVY other than as a retail shareholder. He and I have expressed some diametrically opposing viewpoints from time to time, and I must agree with you that he writes some rather compelling arguments. Sunspotter does have executive level business experience, and generally knows what he is talking about. However, I have never believed that HDC or VoIP-Pal were "scam" companies solely out to defraud their shareholders, and I still do not believe that. Maybe I am just naive, but I do know that after landing a settlement agreement with Intel (which shocked sunspotter), HDC's board hired a new CEO with a stellar reputation in business development bio-engineering to monetize HDC's IP. Just how successful Dr. Hauser can be with his mission remains to be seen, but a scam? No.
VoIP-Pal has been fighting a lengthy, uphill battle within a legal system that is clearly stacked against the patent owner. There are two patent infringement cases in Waco, Texas that are currently awaiting a response from Judge Albright on a motion for reconsideration, filed by VP's legal team. I happen to agree with VP attorney, Hudnell, that Judge Albright made some serious errors of law (e.g., citing the wrong precedent, and getting confused about the claim construction terms in his initial ruling of non-infringement). However, not winning a court case that was repleat with reversable errors does not make VoIP-Pal a scam. They could actually still get a favorable ruling on this. But as things stand currently, sunspotter appears to be more correct than me, however, it is too early to call a winner as both games are still in play and the underdogs could still win. When and if that happens, I will be far less surprised than sunspotter. JMHO.

LocWolf, you are certainly right about having a sense of humor. It can be therapeutic as it helps us cope with difficult situations when we are at a loss for answers. I do not believe that Alan has "left the building" as they say. Besides, a definitive material event like that would necessitate another 8 K filing. I think it is safe to assume that he is at work trying to make things happen that would bring value to shareholders, of which he is one. I would love to be a fly on the wall in his office, and eavesdrop on his conversations. It might be very interesting and possibly exciting. Like everyone else here, I am getting antsy for some kind of news, I must admit.
Be well! Chazzy1
