One piece of good - but not unexpected - news. The judge in our Scanbuy case does not seem to have a problem with using the normal remedy (an injunction) requiring infringers to cease activities that infringe the plaintiff's patents:

In Mead Johnson & Company and Bristol-Myers Squibb Company v. Barr Laboratories, Inc., 1999 WL 118122, (S.D.N.Y.) Mead Johnson & Company and Bristol-Myers Squibb Company succeded in getting Judge Sprizzo to enjoin Barr Laboratories from marketing tablets.

Thus, if we win, we will almost certainly not face the problem that MercExchange got hit with when they won (And They Did Win) their lawsuit against EBAY (the judge refused to issue an injunction against EBAY, but instead only required EBAY to pay damages).
