Event Synopsis:

Over the years, Federal Circuit decisions have made radical changes on how reasonable royalties in patent infringement cases are determined. For example in Uniloc v. Microsoft (2011), the use of the 25 percent rule was abolished. In Laserdynamics, Inc. v. Quanta Computer, Inc. (2012)decision, the consideration of smallest salable patent-practicing unit (SSPPU) was codified into law. Another significant decision was made inResQNet.com, Inc. v. Lansa, Inc. (2010) which suggested that settlement agreements may be admissible. In 2015, Federal Circuit rulings have refined these key decisions and provided guidance and clarification in interpreting these decisions. In this light, practitioners are advised to keep abreast with the recent changes and be mindful of the guiding principles provided by the Federal Circuit to effectively cope up with the ever-changing landscape of reasonable royalty damages.
