I thought I'd let everyone see my three boys playing Minecraft in the conference room this afternoon (they got out of school early today to start their Christmas break) as I mention that on Monday a Tyler jury in Judge John Love's court found for the plaintiff in Patent Harbor LLC v. Funai Corp.. The jury found that all six of the accused products infringed the one asserted claim, and that the defendant had not shown by clear and convincing evidence that the claim was invalid as anticipated, obvious, or not enabled. The jury awarded $608,373. I do not know what the plaintiff asked the jury for, or the defendant said the damages were in the event of infringement.
While there were a number of other defendants in the case originally, Funai was the only defendant by the time of trial.
