In Power Integrations, Inc. v. Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc., et al., Judge Stark ruled that the Supreme Court’s holding in WesternGeco LLC v. ION Geophysical Corp., 138 S.Ct. 2129 (2018)—allowing for recovery of lost profits from foreign sales for infringement under 35 U.S.C. § 271(f)(2)—can be applied to sales stemming from run-of-the-mill direct infringement under 35 U.S.C. § 271(a) and should not be limited to only those sales stemming from the specific form of indirect infringement at issue in WesternGeco.
