Isn't the simple point here that the stats show the vast majority of cases settle. That's an undisputed fact and it takes account of cases of all different kinds. The reason cases (of all kinds) generally settle is the weight of litigation risk on both sides, and hence, the pressure to compromise before trial. The same factors are present here. For both sides, nothing is guaranteed and so like every other case it is more likely to settle than not.
One final observation, especially to those who believe Samsung is solely intent on dragging things out for as long as possible, at all costs. Samsung did not delay its petition to PTAB, or submission of its appeal, so the evidence speaks otherwise.
