United States Federal Circuit

In a patent infringement suit related to patents that describe and claim a different aspect of wireless communication technologies, district court's grant of defendant's motion for summary judgment of noninfringement is affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded where: 1) district court correctly granted summary judgment of noninfringement of the asserted claims of the '642 and '993 patents; 2) regarding the '952 patent, summary judgment of noninfringement is affirmed for all products but for the four models for which plaintiff produced appropriate evidence of direct infringement; and 3) with respect to these four models, district court's summary judgment of no contributory and no induced infringement is reversed because genuine issues of material fact remain.
