"What To Expect In Patent Litigation This Year"

Mark Izraelewicz, John Labbé and Thomas Burns authored an article that published in Law360 on January 3, 2020 discussing patent litigation trends to watch in 2020.

Among other trends, the authors detail the trend impacting the Hatch-Waxman Act, the increasing number of generic defendants in multidefendant litigations; the prediction that plaintiffs will continue to go to Delaware for the experienced patent law judges; the continued recovery and aftermath of the Supreme Court's Mayo Collaborative Services v. Prometheus Laboratories Inc. and Alice Corp. v. CLS Bank International decisions; and plaintiffs leveraging the decision in Western Geco LLC v. ION Geophysical Corp. to collect lost profits damages on sales outside the U.S.
