IP Litigation Exhibit Checklist
Organize patent filings, prior art, and infringement evidence for intellectual property disputes, trademark cases, and trade secret litigation.
- A patent exhibit set includes the patent itself, the complete prosecution history, any reexamination or IPR records, and related patents in the family.
- Prior art is organized by type (patents, publications, products), date, and relevance to specific claims.
- A claim chart mapping prior art references to claim elements is standard preparation for invalidity defenses.
- Infringement evidence includes accused product samples or documentation, claim charts, sales records, and marketing materials.
- Markman hearing exhibits focus on claim construction materials separate from infringement and damages evidence.
- Licensing agreements are included with patent registration files when they bear on damages or ownership.
