The phrase
"prosecution history" refers to the collection of documents and records created during the legal process of prosecuting a case. It includes all the interactions, arguments, decisions, and actions taken by both the prosecution (the party bringing the case) and the defense (the opposing party) throughout the legal proceedings. It provides a detailed account of how the case was handled, including any negotiations, evidence presented, legal arguments made, and court decisions, and can be used as a reference for understanding the context and background of a legal case.
