eBay is pleased with yesterday’s oral argument and appreciated the opportunity to address the Supreme Court in this important case. eBay argued that trial judges ought to have the discretion — expressly granted by Congress — to award money damages to patent owners, instead of injunctions, if the facts of a particular case warrant it. The trial judge correctly found in this case that money was sufficient and denied an injunction. With yesterday’s Supreme Court argument, eBay has fully presented its views to the Court and looks forward to receiving the Court’s ruling.
