Lincoln Nat’l...Error: No video found
(U.S. Fed. Cir., Insurance Law, Intellectual Property, Patent) In a suit for patent infringement, related to computerized methods for administering variable annuity plans, district court’s denial of defendants’ motion for summary judgment as a matter of law that it does not infringe the claims at issue of the ’201 patent is reversed and remanded where: 1) the district court erred in denying defendants’ motion for JMOL of noninfringement as the evidence on the record does not support jury’s verdict of infringement; and 2) because defendant did not infringe, its argument that the district court abused its discretion by refusing to grant it leave to amend its complaint to assert a claim for invalidity under 35 U.S.C. section 101 need not be addressed.
