(U.S. Fed. Cir., Civil Procedure, Health Law, Intellectual Property, Patent) In a patent infringement suit, summary judgment for defendant of invalidity of the asserted claims of a patent relating to an implantable device used to set bone fractures is reversed where: 1) the district court improperly resolved genuine issues of material fact in favor of defendant; and 2) reassignment is advisable to preserve the appearance of justice as the district court has now been reversed twice after entering summary judgment against plaintiff, in both instances simply signing defendant’s proposed statement of law and facts relevant to the decided issues, a disfavored practice in the Ninth Circuit.
