Rotatable Technologies LLC v. Motorola Mobility LLC, No. 14-1042 (Fed. Cir. June 27, 2014)

From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

Rotatable Technologies LLC argues that the preamble term “selectively rotating” is not a claim limitation . A preamble may limit the claimed invention if it recites additional structure or steps that the specification unde r- scores as important, or if it is clearly relied on during prosecution to distinguish the claimed invention from the prior art .
