Now that this has happened, I am wondering what the direct implications of this are to the industry (especially the 'dismissed with prejudice' part).

edit: added the "to the industry" part.



It the plaintiff can't file suit again with the same patents against the same respondent.


I wasn't clear (just updated the previous comment).

What I am wondering is - does this lead to the entire patent industry coming crumbling down? I am expecting that part might not be likely, but I am trying to figure out what part is to be expected.
