Full Fed. Circ. Won’t Rethink $162K Fee Award In Ramey Case

By Editorial Team

The Federal Circuit has declined to reconsider its previous decision upholding a $162,000 fee award against a patent owner represented by attorney William Ramey III and his firm, Ramey LLP. This decision comes after a district court determined that Ramey had initiated a “weak” patent suit against television manufacturer Vizio.

Law360 reported that the Federal Circuit’s ruling stands, affirming the fee award against Ramey and his firm. The case involved allegations that Ramey had brought a meritless patent suit against Vizio, leading to the fee award being imposed.
