Yesterday defendant Abbott opened the postverdict briefing in this case with a salvo worthy of a case with a $1.6 billion dollar jury verdict - five motions for judgment as a matter of law pursuant to FRCP 50. They are helpfully numbered by Abbott and are listed below, prefaced with the docket number. At a quick glance, they seem to track each of the jury's findings (or failure to find, in the case of Abbott's defenses):
289 - Defendants' Motion Number 1: Motion and Supporting Memorandum for JMOL or for New Trial Based on Failure to Comply with the Written Description Requirement or, in the Alternative, for Reconsideration of this Court's Claim Construction and Entry of JMOL of Non-Infringement
294 - Defendants' Motion Number 2: Motion and Supporting Memorandum for JMOL or for New Trial Based on Failure to Comply with the Enablement Requirement
290 - Motion Number 3: Motion and Supporting Memorandum for JMOL of Non-Infringement or for a New Trial
292 - Defendants' Motion Number 4: Motion and Supporting Memorandum for JMOL or for New Trial on Issue of Willfulness
293 - Defendant's Motion Number 5: Abbott's Motion and Supporting Memorandum for JMOL or for New Trial Regarding Lost Profits and Damages Period
