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.

P laintiff-appellant GLG Farms LLC appeals a district court’s summary judgment ruling that defendant-cross- appellant Brandt Agricultural Products , Ltd . does not infringe GLG Farms’ U.S. Patent No. 7,708,131 (“’131 patent”). See GLG Farms LLC v. Brandt Agric. Prods. Ltd., No. 4:14 -cv-153, 2017 WL 6210909 (D.N.D. Mar. 29, 2017). Brandt, for its part, conditionally cross -appeals on alternative noninfringement grounds, arguing that the court erred by not construing certain claim terms .
