From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

Before the Court is Creative Internet Advertising Corporation’s (“CIAC”) Motion for Entry of Judgment on t he Verdict (Doc. No. 286) (“Motion for Entry of Judgment”). This Motion was opposed by Defendant Yahoo! Inc.’s (“Yahoo”) Response in Opposition (Doc. No. 292). CI AC requests that the Court order Yahoo to pay an ongoing royalty rate of 23%. Yahoo responds that no ongoing royalty rate is nece ssary because it has taken steps to remove the infringing aspects of IMVironments, and that CIAC has not shown that a 23% ongoing royalty rate is appropriate.
