District Court Awards Enhanced Damages to Winner in ITC Dispute
The District of Delaware has recently highlighted the availability of enhanced damages for patent owners who choose to proceed first at the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC). Even though ITC decisions are not binding on district courts, Judge Wolson awarded enhanced damages to a plaintiff after the defendant lost a parallel ITC case and brought its production into the U.S. to avoid the ITC’s exclusion order. Wirtgen America, Inc. v. Caterpillar, Inc., No. 1:17-cv-00770-JDW, Dkt. No. 456, Mem. Op. at 24–25, 45–46 (D. Del. Sept. 17, 2024) (hereinafter, “Mem. Op.”). Similarly situated defendants in future actions may expect the same fate if they choose to onshore their supply chain without implementing a design-around.
