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.

This appeal challenges the denial of Medinol Ltd.’s re- quest to reopen a 2014 adverse final judgment under Fed- eral Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b)(6). Because the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying such relief, we affirm. I The parties are familiar with the long procedural his- tory leading to this appeal. We described the bulk of it in our last decision in this litigation, Medinol Ltd. v. Cordis Corp., 719 F. App’x 1016 (Fed. Cir. 2018) ( Medinol II).
