Yes, but the decisions have been made and the repercussions played out. Outside of the 9th district, I believe those decisions would have ended the same way. The plaintiffs want the jury pool to be not too technically literate. Well, that basically excludes the 1st and 9th districts. Think about who the jurors are? People who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty. Now there are so many patent lawsuits going on down there it's hard not to be on the jury and not be involved in a few cases. So the jurors get experience. Maybe the first dozen cases were decided poorly but the jurors are getting trained (unfortunate for the defendants in earlier cases) in how to decide patent law. Have you noticed the decisions coming out have been more fairly decided. It's not enough anymore to just to take a patent case to Texas and assume it's going to be rubber-stamped.
