The point is the the US has a neat way of avoiding individual responsibility with that setup.
Judges are way more impartial since they have personal accountability, that's how the rest of the world does it, where a trial by jury is simply, and provenly the wrong tool for complex special domain cases. [1] p1514: According to these results, the patentee is significantly more likely to
win a jury trial if:
(1) the infringer is foreign;
(2) the infringer is a corporation;
and (3) the patentee is the plaintiff.
The multivariate regression model further supports the conclusion that American juries favor domestic over foreign parties in patent trials. [1] p1510: Patentee win rate by Party Alienage: Patentee-Accused Infringer / Jury / Judge Domestic-Domestic / 71% / 29%
Foreign-Domestic / 38% / 31% [1] https://www.law.gmu.edu/assets/files/publications/working_pa... |
