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.

This case returns to us on remand from the Supreme Court of the United States. Sys., Inc. v. Nordock, Inc ., 137 S. Ct. 589 (2016). Systems, Inc. (“Systems”) sought review of our prior decision in Nordock, Inc. v. Systems Inc., 803 F.3d 1344 (Fed. Cir. 2015), arguing that we erred in our interpretation of design patent damages pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 289. The Supreme Court granted Systems’ petition for a writ of certiorari, vacated our prior judgment, and remanded the case for further proceedings in light of its decision in Samsung Electronics Co. v.
