Headnote
A rare outcome in this corpus: a patent held valid and infringed after full trial, with the suit decreed. The judgment is equally notable for costs, the Court holding that parties carrying commercial litigation must weigh the consequences of an unfavourable result and that mindless appeals should not be the rule, and awarding full commercial costs under the Commercial Courts Act in a suit instituted in 2013 that had run over a decade with the patent expiring during its pendency.
