Interest
As
reported
last week, Dr. Bruce Saffron nabbed
Boston Scientific for
patent infringement to the tune of $432 million. Friday, the presiding judge
tacked on $69 million in pretrial interest. Saffron's lead attorney pipped: "$69 million is a nice amount." Prejudgment interest is common, but not
a given.
Boston Scientific plans to take another roll of the dice in appeal.
