The Plaintiff Litigation export report provides an analysis of the litigations started by our target organisation or cohort. 

The report is an Excel download containing four main tabs:

Summary Tab – shows the litigation analysis
​Defendants Tab – looks at the defendants and the litigations initiated against them, in relation to the reference organisation or cohort
​Litigations Tab – looks at the relevant litigation details
​Patents Tab – looks at all the patents that have been asserted

Summary Tab

Won: court decided in favour of the selected organisation
​Settled: the action was settled between the parties
​Lost: court decided against the selected organisation
​Active: case is on-going
​Other: the outcome is unknown. Reasons for this include: multiple-defendant case involving different outcomes, case was transferred, dismissed, terminated or withdrawn.

The defendants chart shows the number of litigations associated with a defendant and the organisation (s) it was targeted by.

This will show you the number of started litigations per year helping you identify potential trends.

The technology clusters are based on patents asserted by Honeywell and the cohort. Notice that some are against an NPE.
Analysing the chart above, the total number of litigated patents in the first technology cluster is 34, they have been asserted a total of 54 times and the average assertions proportion against an NPE is 3%.
One of the most powerful charts in this report providing you with interesting and relevant information.

The next two charts focus on the activity in the technology clusters.

The pie chart presents the technology clusters, highlighting their proportion sizes, offering an instant insight into which are the most litigious technology areas.

The bars chart combines the litigated technology cluster proportion sizes and the start year of the litigation. For example in 2017 most of the litigations happened in the “ Bar code, scan pattern” cluster. 

Defendant Tab

This Tab includes the defendant company information, number of litigations started against them, and how many of those where started by our cohort, if the cohort is an NPS and the result.
Cohort = the company /companies included in the initial parameters of the report.
Analysing the first row, from the total of 12 litigations where Novozymes is the defendant, 7 are started by our cohort.

Litigations Tab

This tab provides in depth information on the actual litigations such as: plaintiff, jurisdiction, defendant and hyperlink to the case details in Cipher.

Patents Tab 

This tab looks at all the patents that have been asserted and their relevant details such as current owner, technology area, family and status. The patent numbers are hyperlinked to the patent document.
