From questions about granting and enforcing injunctions after eBay v. MercExchange and TiVo v. EchoStar, to the proper standards for calculating damages after the ResQnet cases regarding use of prior licenses in determining reasonable royalty rates and the Uniloc v.

Scott Kieff of George Washington University Law School; Prof. Michael Meurer of Boston University School of Law; and Prof. David S. Olson of Boston College Law School as the moderator.
