Won defense verdict for Korean manufacturer of semiconductor equipment and its founder (E.D. Tex.). After deliberating less than two hours, the jury returned a verdict of non-infringement, no tortious interference, and no conspiracy. The plaintiffs sought over $100 million in actual and punitive damages but were awarded only $622,000 on a single contract claim. The jury also awarded the founder $1.36 million-every penny sought-on his breach of contract claim.
