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 appeal is from a grant of judgment on the plea d- ings under Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(c) that the asserted claims of U.S. Patent Nos. 6,307,576 (‘‘the ’576 patent’’) and 6,611,278 (‘‘the ’ 278 patent’’) are invalid. The United States District Court for the Central District of California found that the asserted claims are directed to patent - ineligible subject matter and are therefore invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 101 (“ § 101”).
