United States Federal Circuit
Ring Plus, Inc. v. Cingular Wireless Corp., 09-1537
In plaintiff's suit for infringement of its patent, related to a software based algorithm and method for generating and delivering messages over a phone line during a "ringing signal" period, judgment of the district court is affirmed in part, reversed in part and remanded where: 1) district court's judgment of unenforceability for inequitable conduct is reversed as the district court clearly erred in finding that applicants acted with specific intent to deceive the PTO; 2) because the court did not err in construing the disputed claim terms, district court's entry of summary judgment of noninfringement is affirmed; and 3) district court's denial of plaintiff's motion to disqualify counsel is affirmed.
