The Chicago Lawyer has published an interesting article on patent infringement litigation. The article notes:
The Northern District of Texas saw the highest win rate for plaintiffs, 55 percent, in Lemley’s study of patent cases between 2000 and 2010. Plaintiffs fared sixth-best in East Texas, winning 40 percent of cases.
The statistics may reflect the (relatively) small amount of patent infringement cases that had been filed in the Northern District of Texas until recently, but are interesting nonetheless. The article provides an interesting overview of the current state of patent infringement litigation, and is well worth a read for patent practitioners.
