This is a 1994 patent. Looks like it should be expiring in Nov. Better hurry up with that suit, patent troll!
The patent owner can still sue for damages for pre-expiration infringement, going back six years (which is the statute of limitations). But damages for infringement won't continue to accrue after expiration.
In addition, any injunction against infringement would expire automatically with the patent.
