Fresh From the Bench: Latest Federal Circuit Court Case

CASE OF THE WEEK

DBN Holding, Inc. v. International Trade Commission, Appeal No. 2020-2342 (Fed. Cir. Mar. 1, 2022)‎

The Federal Circuit issued only one precedential decision this week relating to a patent case. On this appeal—the fourth in the case—the issues were far removed from issues concerning patent law, and instead related to modifications of consent orders. Thus, we cover the case only in abbreviated form.

The appeal was from the International Trade Commission’s determination denying DBN’s petition to rescind or modify the civil penalty imposed by the ITC for violation of a ‎consent order.
