Boston Scientific Corporation announced today a decision by the United States District Court in Delaware. The case involves a patent owned by Johnson & Johnson and Boston Scientific's NIR(R) stent product. In the decision, the Judge granted Johnson & Johnson's motion for entry of final judgment and denied Boston Scientific's motion for a new trial. In 2000, a jury awarded Johnson & Johnson $324 million in damages based on Boston Scientific's sale of the NIR stent. The Court also awarded pre-judgment interest at prime rate based on after-tax damages.
