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.

Rothschild Connected Devices Innovation, LLC (“RCDI”) sued Coca-Cola Company (“Coca-Cola”), alleging that Coca-Cola’s Freestyle beverage dispensers infringe in- dependent claim 11, and various claims depending on claim 11, of U.S. Patent No. 8,417,377 (“the ’377 patent”). After construing relevant claim limitations, the district court granted Coca-Cola’s motion for summary judgment of non- infringement.
