Appeals court hits largest public patent troll with $1.4M fee

2015-10-12 23:15:30| Semiconductors - Topix.net

The nation's top patent court has given its seal of approval to a hefty $1.4 million award of legal fees against the largest publicly traded "non-practicing entity," Acacia Research Corporation. The award was granted one year ago by US District Judge Gregory Sleet, and it was one of the first to be decided under the new Octane Fitness caselaw, which makes it easier for defendants to get their legal fees in baseless patent suits.
