5 months agoFederal Circuit Vacates $20 Million Damages Award for Rasmussen Instruments Over Patent Ownership
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) on Monday issued a decision in Rasmussen Instruments, LLC v. DePuy Synthes Products, Inc., vacating a United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts judgment and remanding with instructions to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The court held that Rasmussen Instruments lacked standing to bring the patent infringement lawsuit because it did not own the asserted patents at the time the suit was filed.
