U.S. District Judge Ed Kinkeade has cut in half last year’s $500 million award against Facebook-owned Oculus in a case in which a jury found that the company directly infringed on virtual reality technology owned by ZeniMax Media.

Kinkeade’s recent final judgment in the case, ZeniMax Media v. Oculus, comes 16 months after a closely watched three-week trial in Dallas featuring the testimony of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who told the jury he did not buy stolen technology when his company purchased Oculus.
