On November 17, 2014, the Court held a hearing to determine the proper construction of the disputed claim terms in United States Patent Nos. 7,432,589 (“th e ‘589 Patent”); 7,462,870 (“the ‘870 Patent”); 7,521,863 (“the ‘863 Pa tent”); and 8,530,250 (“the ‘250 Patent”) (collectively, the “Asserted Patents”).
