The biggest news from a recent Velcro IP victory might not be who won but that a bunch of patent lawyers were in court at all.
The winning legal team from Fish & Richardson said in a news release Wednesday that it was the first patent jury verdict in U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Georgia since 2001 and the first in the entire state since 2008.
“It is not the rule, of course, for patent cases to go to trial,” Fish principal Christopher Green of Atlanta, who led the legal team for the Velcro Companies, said in an interview late Wednesday.
