Patent infringement damages — Reasonable royalties can exceed expected profits
$225.00
Description
Abstract: The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit continues to push the boundaries of reasonable royalty damages in patent infringement cases. This article looks at a case in which the court upheld a jury award based on reasonable royalties that were more than three times the plaintiff’s expected profits. It explains why the court ruled that a patentee’s profit expectations do not serve as a cap on reasonable royalties. Citation: Powell v. Home Depot, No. 2010-1409, -1416 (Fed. Cir. 11/14/2011)
