    Moskowitz Family LLC v. Globus Medical, Inc. (Fed. Cir., September 11, 2026) 2024-1696

    In this episode, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed a lower court's rulings regarding a patent infringement dispute between Moskowitz Family LLC and Globus Medical, Inc. The central conflict involved three patents for spinal-fusion surgery technology, specifically focusing on the interpretation of the terms "universal"and "cooperating" within the patent claims. The court determined that the word "universal" acted as a limiting factor in the patent descriptions, requiring the devices to be adaptable across all spinal regions and surgical approaches. Because Moskowitz acknowledged that Globus's products did not meet this specific "universal" criteria, the court upheld the summary judgment of noninfringement. Additionally, the appellate court supported a jury’s verdict that Globus did not infringe on a separate tool patent, concluding that the decision was backed by substantial evidence presented during the trial.

    Versata Software, LLC v. Ford Motor Company (Fed. Cir., September 10, 2026) 2024-1140

    In this episode, the hosts discuss the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit review of a dispute between Versata Software and Ford Motor Company regarding trade secret misappropriation and breach of contract. The court determined that the lower district court erred by blocking Versata from pursuing unjust enrichment damages, a right explicitly granted under both federal and Michigan law. Consequently, the appellate court vacated the ruling that had zeroed out Versata’s trade secret compensation and ordered a new trial on those specific damages. Additionally, the court reversed a reduction in contract damages, reinstating an $82.26 million jury award because the original calculation was based on sufficient evidence. Finally, the judges upheld Ford’s liability for stealing trade secrets, rejecting the automaker’s argument that it required more specific knowledge of the software's internal combinations to be held responsible.

    Netlist, Inc. v. Micron Technology, Inc. (Fed. Cir., September 2, 2026) 2024-1707

    This episode concerns a decision by the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit regarding a patent dispute between Netlist, Inc. and Micron Technology. The court ultimately affirmed a prior ruling by the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, which declared that all claims within Netlist’s computer memory patent were unpatentable due to obviousness. Netlist’s patent focused on specialized buffer circuits designed to improve the capacity and performance of memory modules by isolating data paths. The court rejected Netlist's technical arguments, finding substantial evidencethat earlier technological disclosures, specifically a reference known as Ellsberry, already taught the methods for managing data path latency and enablement. By upholding the board's decision, the court concluded that the invention lacked the necessary novelty required for patent protection under federal law.

    Exelixis v. MSN (Fed. Cir., August 31, 2026) 2025-1236

    This episode concerns an opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit detailing a patent dispute between Exelixis, Inc. and MSN Laboratories regarding the cancer drug cabozantinib. The court affirmed a lower court's ruling that several of Exelixis’s patents are valid because their specifications provide an adequate written description of the claimed crystalline salts. Although MSN argued the patents lacked sufficient detail to cover an entire group of chemical forms, the judges found that disclosing the chemical name, formula, and crystalline structure was legally sufficient. Additionally, the court dismissed a portion of the appeal concerning a separate patent because Exelixis dropped its infringement claims, rendering that specific controversy moot. Consequently, the appellate court vacated the lower court's validity finding on that mooted patent to prevent unfair legal consequences for MSN.

    Constellation Designs v. LG (Fed. Cir., August 28, 2026) 2024-1822

    This episode concerns a patent litigation between Constellation Designs and LG Electronics in which the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued a decision regarding digital communication technologies used in television broadcasting. The court distinguished between optimization claims, which it ruled were patent ineligibleabstract ideas because they focused on mathematical results without specific implementation details, and constellation claims, which remained patent eligible because they recited specific, non-uniform point arrangements. Furthermore, the judges affirmed that a patent owner can prove infringement by combining industry standard compliance with direct product evidence for individual claim elements. The ruling also upheld a jury verdict for willful infringement and a damages award based on comparable licenses. Ultimately, the appellate court vacated the judgment regarding certain patents while affirming others, remanding the case for further legal proceedings.

    T-Mobile v. Kaifi (Fed. Cir., August 28, 2026) 2025-1006

    This episode concerns a legal opinion from the Federal Circuit addressing a jurisdictional dispute between T-Mobile and KAIFI LLC following a settlement agreement regarding a Wi-Fi calling patent. The core conflict involves whether T-Mobile owes a contingent payment based on the contractual phrase "survives the EPR," after the Patent Office confirmed several patent claims during a reexamination. While T-Mobile argued that the claims did not truly survive due to inequitable conduct and altered scopes, the district court ruled that the plain language of the Reexamination Certificate satisfied the contract. The appellate court ultimately determined it lacked subject-matter jurisdictionbecause the case centers on Texas contract law rather than a substantial question of federal patent law. Consequently, the court ordered the case transferred to the Fifth Circuit for a final resolution on the merits of the breach of contract claim.

    AML IP, LLC v. Bath & Body Works Direct, Inc. (Fed. Cir., August 28, 2026) 2025-1280

    In this episode, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed a lower court's decision to dismiss a patent infringement lawsuit brought by AML IP, LLC against several major retailers. Although the district court initially found that the lawsuit was filed in an improper venue, it proceeded to rule that the underlying patent was also ineligible for legal protection. AML challenged this dual ruling, arguing that the court should have stopped once it determined the venue was incorrect. The appellate court rejected this argument, concluding that district court judges have the discretionary power to rule on multiple grounds to promote judicial efficiency. By addressing both issues at once, the court successfully avoided the potential for redundant and piecemeal appeals. Ultimately, the court declined to issue an advisory opinion regarding how this judgment might affect future litigation.

    US Inventor, Inc. v. Squires (Fed. Cir., August 21, 2026) 2024-2378

    This episode concerns a legal opinion from the Federal Circuit addressing a lawsuit brought by inventor-advocacy groups against the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The plaintiffs argued that the language on patent covers is misleading because it promises an absolute "right to exclude" others, which was curtailed by the Supreme Court’s eBay v. MercExchange decision. However, the court affirmed the dismissal of the case, ruling that the organizations lacked standing to sue. The judges determined that the groups failed to show a concrete future injury, as their members are already aware of the current legal standards. Furthermore, the court clarified that organizations cannot manufacture standing simply by choosing to spend resources on member education or advocacy. Finally, the court denied the request to amend the complaint, concluding that any revisions would be futile given the lack of demonstrable harm.
