Dow Chemical Company v. Nova Chemicals Corporation 2012 FC 754Oct 25, 2012This is a motion by the defendant for attendance at tests and experiments that the plaintiffs propose to conduct in support of their action. The plaintiffs’ action is scheduled for January 2013 and alleges that the defendant infringed their Canadian Patent No. 2,160,705 (the ‘705 Patent). [Note: This decision is from 2012 but only recently posted online.]
The Dow Chemical Company et al. v. Nova Chemicals Corporation 2014 FC 844Sep 5, 2014Dow alleged patent infringement on a patent relating to polyethylene compositions comprising a blend of two components. The Court construed the claims including, among other terms, "comprising", "homogeneously branched", "linear", "substantially linear" and "slope of strain hardening coefficient". On infringement, the Court held that Dow's tests reproduced a component of Nova's polymers and its tests showed infringement. The Court dismissed the allegations of invalidity including on the basis of utility, claims broader, prior art, double patenting and insufficiency. As a result, the plaintiffs were entitled to elect accounting of profits or damages, reasonable compensation, interest, and their costs. Dimock Stratton appeared for Dow.
Dow Chemical Company v. Nova Chemicals Corporation 2016 FC 91Jan 22, 2016When the decision was released in this matter, the plaintiffs, The Dow Chemical Company, Dow Global Technologies Inc. and Dow Chemical Canada ULC were awarded their costs of the proceeding (see 2014 FC 844) ... I am of the view that costs in the amount of $1,099,725 pursuant to Column V of Tariff B, would be totally inadequate as an amount of costs for the plaintiffs in this case. To only recoup 11% of your costs in such a complex case is not acceptable. ... As noted earlier, the plaintiffs seek a lump sum of $2.9 million for their costs for legal fees. This is approximately 30% of the actual legal fees. Because of the complexity and the many issues raised in this case, I find this to be a reasonable amount. ... In conclusion, I will grant an order granting the plaintiffs a lump sum payment of $6.5 million for their costs in this matter. The amount consists of $2.9 million for legal fees and $3.6 million for the plaintiffs’ reasonable and necessary disbursements.
The Dow Chemical Company et al v Nova Chemicals Corporation 2017 FC 350Apr 19, 2017In this reference decision (see liability decisions 2014 FC 844) and 2016 FCA 216) related to the appropriate calculation of the defendant's profits to be paid as a result of patent infringement for a patent directed to polyethylene. It also concerned liability for certain disputed additional grades. The Court found that the disputed grades were already encompassed by the liability decision or in the alternative, that it would not be fair and just to give effect to the equitable defence of res judicata, given Nova’s deliberate concealment of information pertaining to the disputed grades in the course of discovery. The Court determined an appropriate rate for a pre-grant reasonable royalty at 8.8%. The Court did consider a ramp up period in the but-for world. In determining Nova's costs, the Court considered Nova's actual costs to produce the ethylene used to produce the infringing product. The Court applied a full cost or absorption approach, where the profits to be disgorged are the applicable revenue less applicable variable, fixed, and a proportion of certain fixed and capital costs. The Court applied pre-judgment interest, compounding at 5% on the accounting of profits based on Nova's cost of its long-term debt. The Court found that the evidence supported the conclusion that Nova's profits were received and primarily retained in US dollars so the profits should be converted to Canadian dollars as of the date of judgment. The Court directed the parties' experts to calculate the sums owing based on the decision.
Dow Chemical Company v. Nova Chemicals Corporation 2017 FC 637Jul 5, 2017"Pursuant to paragraph 8 of the Judgment [see 2017 FC 350], the parties were directed to exchange calculations of damages and profits payable by the Defendant [Nova] to the Plaintiffs [Dow], and to identify any matters that required resolution by the Court. The parties subsequently informed the Court that they were in substantial agreement regarding the sums payable by Nova to Dow, but were unable to resolve three issues: (a) whether Nova is permitted to deduct capital costs and certain fixed costs relating to the ethylene used to produce the infringing SURPASS products; (b) the basis for allocating fixed costs of Nova’s PE2 plant between the infringing and non-infringing products made at that facility; and (c) when capital expenditures reported in Canadian dollars [CAD] relating to construction of the PE2 plant should be converted to U.S. dollars [USD] for the purpose of calculating annual capital depreciation. ... Nova shall pay to Dow $644,623,550.00, inclusive of pre-judgment interest to April 7, 2017, together with pre-judgment interest calculated in accordance with this Court’s Judgment in Dow v Nova from April 7, 2017 to the date of this Judgment. Nova shall pay to Dow post-judgment interest of 5%, not compounded, from the date of this Judgment."
Dow Chemical Company v. Nova Chemicals Corporation 2017 FC 759Aug 8, 2017This order concerns the costs and disbursements payable to Dow Chemical Company, Dow Global Technologies Inc and Dow Chemical Canada ULC [collectively Dow] by Nova Chemicals Corporation [Nova] as a result of this Court’s judgment in Dow Chemical Company v Nova Chemicals Corporation, 2017 FC 350 and supplemental judgment in Dow Chemical Company v Nova Chemicals Corporation, 2017 FC 637 [collectively remedies phase]. For the reasons that follow, Dow is awarded costs in the lump sum of $4,355,555.63, comprising legal fees in the amount of $1,200,000.00 and disbursements in the amount of $3,155,555.63.
Dow Chemical Company v. Nova Chemicals Corporporation 2016 FC 361Mar 30, 2016The Plaintiffs, Dow et al, have brought this motion seeking relief expressed as:
Nova Chemicals Corporation v. Dow Chemicals Company 2020 FCA 141Sep 15, 2020Before the Court is an appeal and a cross-appeal from the judgment of the Federal Court in file T-2051-10 (per Fothergill J.): 2017 FC 350, supplementary reasons 2017 FC 637, reasons on costs 2017 FC 759. ... Broadly speaking, the appeal and the cross-appeal in this Court concern the principles that should govern the calculation of a plaintiff’s recovery under an accounting of profits. This issue arises from an earlier judgment of the Federal Court, later affirmed on appeal: 2014 FC 844, aff’d 2016 FCA 216. ... The jurisprudence has developed two rules for courts to help them implement these principles: (1) only actual profits, meaning actual revenues minus actual costs, are disgorged; (2) only profits that have resulted from the patent infringement are disgorged. ... Thus, for the foregoing reasons, in the accounting of profits context, the use of the term “non-infringing baseline” is preferable to “non-infringing alternative”. Using the term “non-infringing baseline” steers courts and litigants away from impermissible “but for” reasoning. ... In my view, absent some exceptional or compelling circumstance or persuasive expert evidence to the contrary in a particular case, the full cost method is the appropriate approach to deducting costs in an accounting of profits. ... Dissent: For the reasons below, I have concluded that an apportionment of profits is appropriate in this case. I also conclude that the Federal Court made a reviewable error by not considering the issue of “causation”, which is at the heart of the legal test of apportionment.

Oral directions received from the Court: Martha Milczynski, Prothonotary dated 09-SEP-2015 directing that "The following directions, issued on January 15, 2015, was not received by the parties: 'Upon review of the submissions made by counsel regarding a timetable for the steps in this proceeding, I am satisfied that it would be just, most efficient, expeditious and cost-effective for the parties to conduct examinations for discovery in the usual way and not in a staggared/ bifurcated manner as proposed by the Defendant, examining the Plaintiff after the Plaintiff has made the election between profits and damages. Such staggared discovery will likely delay the final disposition of remedy through the serial rounds of examinations, refusals motions and re- attendances. Moreover, it may be that the Plaintiff will be better informed and in a better position to make an election after examinations of both parties on damages and profits as per the ordinary course - having examined the Defendant but also having been subject to inquiries that may yield insight into the strengths and weaknesses of one's own case for either damages or profits. Moreover, this proceeding was already bifurcated on the issues of liability and quantification of remedy, and having succeeded, Dow is entitled to pursue this remedy without delay. I also note that the parties are already familiar with the issues given, as the Plaintiff notes, the two previous trials involving the quantification of damages in corresponding U.S. litigation. Accordingly, in addition to the timelines already directed, the following timetable shall govern this proceeding: -First round of examinations for discovery to be completed by July 31, 2015; -Answers to undertakings/questions taken under advisement to be delivered by September 15, 2015; -Parties to requisition a case management teleconference by September 30, 2015 to schedule any motion arising from examinations for discovery, and to discuss the scheduling of the date for the hearing of the reference (if the parties are in agreement as to the timeframe for the reference and the hearing time required, they may confirm in wirting a joint request that the reference be scheduled before this cmc) -Further timetable shall be discussed at the above teleconference or upon the disposition of any refusals motion(s).' To take into accound the passage of time and the discussions on the case management teleconference of Friday September 4, 2015, the above schedule shall be revised to take into account the dates agreed to by the parties, namely September 11, 14 and 15, 2015 for Dow's discovery of Nova and October 28 and 29, 2015 for Nova's discovery of Dow - along with an additional 2 days in November if required. In additiona, the following steps shall govern this proceeding: -Answers to undertakings to be delivered by November 23, 2015; -A case management teleconference shall be conducted at 12:30 p.m. on December 1, 2015 to schedule any motion arising from examination for discovery, and to discuss the scheduling of the date for the hearing of the reference (note: if the parties are in agreement as to the timeframe for the reference and the hearing time required, they may confirm in writing a joint request that the reference be scheduled before this cmc) -A further timetable shall be discussed at the above teleconference or upon the disposition of any refusals motion(s)." placed on file on 09-SEP-2015 Confirmed in writing to the party(ies)
