Six year look back
IF WDDD ever files another lawsuit, then they might be able to apply a six year look back. The problem is that this case is now going on five years now and does not even have a trial date yet. Considering that the CAFC process will take a year, the trial (if it finally gets held) another year, and then the appeal another year, that will be 2020 that any judgement would be collected at the earliest.
It is from that point that new cases could be filed and the six year look back be done.
I do think there is a good chance that the six year look back may not apply since VRNG ran into a like situation also. They were not allowed to go back six years because it was held that they knew about the infringement but did not file a lawsuit for years.
Even if WDDD is allowed to look back six years, the years are simply slipping by with no other lawsuits being filed.
That is why I limited my calculations to an expected judgement from the one case against ATVI.
