The case law refers to the price effect of infringement as “price erosion.” Damages from price erosion are awarded in only a small minority of cases (see Davis and Kedrowski, 1997, pp. 13–14), even though price erosion (to some extent) must be a nearly universal phenomenon. Moreover, a lower price i ...
