In this patent case, the Court now considers Dynaenergetics US, Inc.’s Motion for Summary Judgment of Invalidity of the ’394 Patent as Lacking Proper Written Description [Dkt. # 109]. After considering the parties’ briefs on th e issue1 and the controlling case law, the Court concludes that a reasonable factfinder could determine that the written description requirement was met, so the Court will DENY this Motion.
