Roche Diagnostics Operations v. Lifescan Incorporated, No. 15-1356 (Fed. Cir. Sept. 22, 2016)

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.

Roche Diagnostics Operations, Inc. and Corang e I n- ternational Limited (“Roche”) appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Delaware’s grant of summary judgment in favor of Lifescan Incorporated and Nova Biomedical Corporation (“Defendants”). The district court entered judgment of non- infringement after construing the term “electrode” in a way that excluded Defendants’ products. The district court’s claim constru c- tion was correct and we therefore affirm the court’s jud g- ment of non-infringement. B ACKGROUND I.
