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.

Ameranth, Inc. (“Ameranth”) sued Domino’s Pizza, LLC and Domino’s Pizza, Inc. (together, “Domino’s”) for in- fringement of various claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,146,077 (“the ’077 patent”). The district court entered judgment that claims 1, 4–9, 11, and 13–18 of the ’077 patent are pa- tent ineligible under 35 U.S.C. § 101. We affirm as to claims 1, 6–9, 11, and 13–18, but hold that the district court lacked declaratory judgment jurisdiction as to claims 4 and 5. AMERANTH, INC. v.
