I doubt he will use Vringo's settlement number.

It is now about punishing Google for their transgressions.

He already said what process and method he would use.... that being an enhanced royalty rate as referenced in his order.

This case is willful infringement and it involves a limited time frame to compensate the patentee.

On top of that, Google has been playing games and tried to snowball the court with a phony workaround.

That sounds like at least 7 percent to me!!!!

The reason Google fought this so hard for so long is that they know their liability is very high in this matter. They will get stuck hard for this when the Judge rules. He has no choice but to do so as not doing just that would just be terribly wrong.

His ruling has to be equitable and it has to fit the circumstances. It has to address the value of the property and reflect the seriousness of the offenses.
