In this ruling, the Federal Circuit emphasized that claim construction can occur at the motion-to-dismiss stage, albeit with careful consideration of the claim language and context.
The case centered on the interpretation of 'group of buried asset data points,' where the court determined using a single data point can sometimes meet the plural requirement.
The ruling highlighted a nuanced understanding of patent language, particularly how singular versus plural terms can be interpreted in the context of a claim.
Overall, the court affirmed a decision dismissing UTTO's claims, reaffirming the importance of clear language in patents and the need for multiple data points in their purported infringement.
