When must the patent owner pay the infringer?

Article Abstract:

Patent owners should be warned that patent infringement suits may backfire and hold them liable to the accused infringer for large sums. This is demonstrated in a case involving a dental implants of a certain micropit size claimed by a patent. The patent owner sued the infringer and lost, and the infringer responded with a counterclaim against the patent owner under antitrust laws. The counterclaim prospered, resulting in a judgement of $10 million in favor of the infringer.

Patent update

Article Abstract:

The safe harbor provision in Hatch-Waxman Act, allows pharmaceutical industry to conduct new experiments without incurring the liabilities associated with patent infringement. However, federal circuit's interpretation of the said provision in Integra Lifesciences v. Merck differed from this objective of the act. Supreme Court set aside the Federal Circuit's interpretation and defined the boundaries of safe harbor.
