Garmin USA, Inc., et al. v. Cellspin Soft, Inc.

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, No. 2018-1817, 2018-1819, 2018-1820, 2018-1821, 2018-1822, 2018-1823, 2018-1824, 2018-1825, 2018-1826, 2018-2178, 2018-2179, 2018-2180, 2018-2181, 2018-2183, 2018-2184 · judgment June 25, 2019

Certiorari denied · January 13, 2020
Pre-decision estimate: 25% cert probability (95% interval 18%–35%)

Before the decision, about 6.1× the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for counsel who has won certiorari before, a circuit split argued in the petition, and a dissent in the court below (flagged in the petition), and down for a business respondent.
