Summary:

Provides legal analysis of >Global-Tech Appliances, Inc. v. SEB S.A.</EMPHASIS>, in which Supreme Court held that induced infringement under Section 271(b) of the Patent Act requires knowledge that the induced acts constitute patent infringement, and that deliberate indifference to a known risk that a patent exists does not satisfy the knowledge required by Section 271(b). Discusses potential impact of this case on the law.
