3form, Inc. v. Lumicor, Inc., No. 16-1535 (Fed. Cir. Feb. 2, 2017)

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.

3form, Inc. appeals from a summary judgment order invalidating both a utility patent and a design patent it had asserted against Lumicor, Inc. While we disagree with certain claim constructions adopted by the district court for the utility patent, we nonetheless agree with the district court’s validity analysis, and we affirm. We also affirm the court’s invalidation of 3form’s design patent for obviousness.
