"plus my unfamiliarity with the underlying technology, makes it tough for me to put together a complete picture of how this litigation actually unfolded."
If you can't get the big picture, what chance does a lay jury have?
Isn't it time the US moved to a specialised patent court, as is found in many other jurisdictions?
- lrs 14y agoI think a good trial lawyer would probably be able to get a jury to a level of at least rudimentary understanding of the technology over the course of a multi-day trial. But I agree with the spirit of what you're saying. Reliance on trial by lay jury is just one of the many, many ways the American patent system is broken.
