In an order issued Sept. 27, Chief U.S. District Judge David Folsom of the Eastern District of Texas doubled the $26.6 million in damages that a Marshall jury awarded Plano-based DataTreasury Corp. (DTC) in a patent infringement suit. Folsom also found that U.S. Bank is the only defendant liable for the judgment.
At the conclusion of a March trial, the jury found that U.S. Bank and Viewpointe Archive Services jointly infringed on two of DTC’s check imaging patents and that their infringement was willful. The jury also awarded $394,000 in damages against U.S. Bank and The Clearing House Payments Co. after finding that they jointly infringed on the DTC patents but that their infringement was not willful.
