Lex Machina, a legal analytics company that grew out of a project run by Stanford University's law school and its computer science department, has published a 37-page “copyright litigation report” developed from litigation data and court decisions covering thousands of copyright cases filed in U.S. district courts over the past five years. The report analyzes key filings, findings, judgment types, decisions, resolutions, damages and other data.
The information may help entertainment counsel make more informed decisions on a broad range of legal and business issues that affect the industry. Lex Machina describes the report as the first comprehensive study of U.S. copyright litigation to provide a detailed analysis of different judicial districts, timing on trial and injunctions, and top parties and firms for marketing and outside counsel selection.
“As anyone who has ever done legal research knows, a good search eliminates noise, leaving one to focus on the relevant portion of the results,” Brian Howard, Lex Machina's legal data scientist and director of analytics, writes in the report's executive summary.
