After a week-long trial that featured damaging admissions and changed stories from opposing party Halliburton’s fact and expert witnesses, a Waco jury took less than three hours to clear client U.S. Well Services of competitor Halliburton’s claims that it infringed certain patents involving use of hydraulic fracturing software as well as methods related to the operation and powering of U.S. Well Services’ fracturing sites, rejecting Halliburton’s position that U.S. Well Services’ commercial success arose from Halliburton technology. The jury also went a step further to invalidate two of the three asserted patents. Winston’s trial team established, largely from Halliburton’s expert testimony, that Halliburton had no evidence to prove performance of the steps of the asserted method claims. What’s more, the Winston team debunked Halliburton’s willful infringement allegations so effectively the judge granted judgment as a matter of law of no willful infringement in the middle of trial, so the jury never had to reach that issue. The consistent messaging of Halliburton’s failure to bring evidence to make good on its burden of proof, spanning from jury selection to closing argument, put the team in the position to win this first of three patent infringement cases with Halliburton and soundly reject Halliburton’s narrative that Halliburton, not U.S. Well Services, was the market innovator in electric fracking.

Nabbed Two Big Wins for Motorola in Billion-Dollar Suits Over Cell Phone Safety
Secured two big wins for Motorola Mobility in two long-running litigations challenging the safety of cellular phones, for which Am Law recognized lead attorney Terry Dee as Litigator of the Week. Seeking billions of dollars in damages, plaintiffs sued Motorola and more than 20 other defendants, alleging that cell phone use causes brain cancer. In April 2023, the Western District of Louisiana held that federal preemption barred much of plaintiffs’ claims. Less than a week later, a D.C. Superior Court excluded all plaintiffs’ general-causation experts, impacting more than 80 pending cases. Together, these two decisions are a severe blow to the plaintiffs’ efforts to challenge the safety of products that drive the US$400+B global cellular telephone market.
