The study explains the effect of litigation as a way to enforce when firms hold private information and it is found that patents protection granted by courts affect the entry, settlement and litigation decisions of future innovations. It is further argued that higher protection might be detrimental to the patent holder as it reduces entry of infringes that would otherwise license the patent.
