This Dog No Longer Hunts in Marshall: The Supreme Court Limits Patent Venue

Today, in TC Heartland LLC v. Kraft Food Group Brands LLC,[1] the US Supreme Court held that, for purposes of the patent venue statute,[2] a domestic corporation “resides” only in its state of incorporation, and not wherever the corporation may be subject to personal jurisdiction.  In so ruling, the Court reaffirmed a prior holding that the patent venue statute “is the sole and exclusive provision controlling venue in patent infringement actions”.
