Legal Matters and Contingencies [Text Block]	NOTE 15. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS From time to time, we are involved in various claims, legal actions and complaints arising in the normal course of business. Although the ultimate outcome of the matters discussed below and other matters is not presently determinable, management currently believes that the resolution of all such pending matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Two former employees of Exar’s French subsidiary have filed claims against that French subsidiary for alleged unfair dismissal in the French Labor Courts. We believe that the former employees were terminated in accordance with the requirements of French law and that the former employees’ claims are not supported by any relevant evidence. One matter is scheduled for trial in February, 2014. The other matter is in the early procedural stages. We intend to vigorously defend our positions.
