The jury awarded Broadcom a total of $19.6 million in damages and found
that QUALCOMM's infringement was willful. A damages award may be increased
up to three-fold for willful infringement. The trial judge will determine
whether there should be any increase in the damages award based on the
finding of willfulness.
Anybody else think these awards seem light? I know apples and oranges.... I just haven't seen many 50 million + awards lately.
