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 claim construction opinion construes the disputed term in U.S. Patent No. 4,962,927 (“the ‘927 patent”). In the above-styled cause of action, Plaintiff Nicholas Colucci d/b/a EZ Line Putters (“Colucci”) accuses Defendant Callaway Golf Company (“Callaway”) of infringing both claims of the ‘927 patent. The parties originally submitted four terms for construction, but after the Markman hearing, presented only one remaining term, “putter head,” for construction. (Doc. No. 82) (“Provisional Claim Construction Order”).
