Patent litigation, the Sport of Kings, does not come cheap, especially when the litigation transmogrifies into a multi-jurisdictional slugfest. When managing a global patent fight, it is important to keep the big picture in mind and understand when continued fighting makes sense and when it does not. One rough and ready tool is to compare the ratio between the current royalty demands and the anticipated litigation costs in one’s case to other historical litigations. Comparing such ratios can help one understand whether return on investment in the litigation makes sense in terms of hoped-for royalty savings. Such information can inform the parties when it makes sense to settle.

Covid-19: Are field hospitals operating in Wales?

When the coronavirus pandemic struck in the spring, facilities all over the country from sports stadia to theatres were rapidly converted into field hospitals.
Known in Wales as Enfys (Rainbow) hospitals and in England as Nightingale hospitals, they provided thousands of extra beds, many of which were never needed.
With cases now rocketing and regular hospitals closing other services because of the high number of Covid cases filling beds, are field hospitals still part of the mix for patient care?
How many field hospitals opened in Wales?

Conversant v. Daimler
As I already noted earlier this month, the Oberlandesgericht München (Munich Higher Regional Court) fundamentally disagrees with the Munich I Regional Court s approach to setting the amounts of collateral to be posted in the form of a bond or a security deposit when patent injunctions are enforced while an appeal is pending.
Meanwhile I ve obtained a copy of an order by the appeals court in
Conversant v. Daimler, raising the security amount from 5.5 million euros to 146 million euros. That s an increase by more than a factor of 26 and a complete (with respect to this part of the dispute) victory for Daimler at this stage. It also means that Nokia-fed Conversant won t ever enforce a German injunction against Daimler over the patent-in-suit, as the troll probably can t afford this amount anytime soon and the patent is going to expire in about a month s time.
