Genband US LLC v. Metaswitch Networks Corp., No. 17-1148 (Fed. Cir. July 10, 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.

Appellant Genband US LLC sued Metaswitch Ne t- works Corp. and Metaswitch Networks Ltd. (together, Metaswitch) for patent infringement. After a jury found that Metaswitch infringed various claims of several of Genband’s patents, and that the claims at issue had not been proven invalid, Genband sought a permanent injunc- tion. The district court denied the request, concluding that Genband had not established irreparable harm from the infringing activities.
