Counsel for plaintiffs on a number of patent infringement actions brought by Lonestar Inventions against a series of defendants. The invention involved a multi-layered interdigitated capacitor on a semi-conductor substrate. Most of the cases were prosecuted in the Tyler division of the Eastern District of Texas. Some of the cases settled only after a favorable Markman order that was entered in the spring of 2009. Cumulative settlements exceeded $35,000,000. The list of parties with whom Lonestar settled included (among others): Analog Devices, Texas Instruments, Toshiba, Broadcom, Marvell, Advanced Micro Devices, Kodak, Freescale, Agere and Xilinx.
