: Eastern District of Texas Federal Court PracticeDefense win in Sherman patent case
By Michael Smith
Dell USA L.P. v. Lucent Technologies, Inc., (NO. 4:03-CV-347)
Judge: Richard Schell
This one was under the radar - didn't even show up on the Eastern District's court calendar and the docket does not yet have any entries dealing with the trial - but it's my understanding from media reports that yesterday Judge Schell's court in Sherman returned a verdict for defendant Lucent Technologies in a patent case involving touch-screen technology. I had posted on the Markman opinion over a year ago ago - it's reported at 2006 WL 3166363 (E.D.Tex. Nov 02, 2006).
The verdict isn't posted yet, nor are any of the trial proceedings. If this is a trial outcome, then 2008 starts off like 2007 ended - with a defense win (2007 ended up two plaintiff wins to seven defense wins at trial, if my math is correct).
