April 10, 2015.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael E. Joffre, Kellogg, Huber, Hansen, Todd, Evans & Figel, PLLC, Washington, DC, argued for plaintiff-appellee. Also represented by Arthur A. Gasey ; Daniel R. Ferri,   Raymond Pardo Niro, I, Niro, Haller & Niro, Chicago, IL.

Before PROST, Chief Judge, MOORE, and O'MALLEY, Circuit Judges.


Vizio, Inc. appeals from the district court's denial of attorneys' and expert witness fees under 35 U.S.C. § 285, 28 U.S.C. § 1927, and the court's inherent power. We hold that the district court abused its discretion in denying fees, and thus vacate and remand.
