About the session:
On January 17, 2024, a Robins Kaplan trial team obtained a $42.4 million verdict in favor of client Willis Electric. The verdict affirmed Willis Electric’s claims that its competitor, Polygroup, had willfully infringed on its patent related to artificial Christmas tree lights. This is believed to be the largest patent jury verdict in the District of Minnesota history. Members of the team share the trial strategies that led to this result.
