NATIONAL PATENT JURY INSTRUCTIONS
The National Patent Jury Instructions were created by a committee, national in scope, with members from both the bench and bar. The committee was assembled by Chief Judge Paul R. Michel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit to develop a new set of model jury instructions for patent infringement cases based on the experience of those both on the bench and in the bar. These instructions have not been endorsed by the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals, and are not “official” jury instructions, but are intended to be a simplified and easy-to-understand set of model jury instructions that will be helpful to judges and lawyers across the country.
