United States Federal Circuit
Arlington Indus., Inc. v. Bridgeport Fittings, Inc., 10-1025
In an action for infringement of patents related to an improved electrical connector that snaps into electrical junction boxes with one hand instead of two, district court's grant of summary judgment of noninfringement, non-willfulness, and no damages as to the patents-in-suit, is vacated and remanded as, the district court's in parties' second case misconstrued the "spring metal adapter" and "spring steel adapter" terms by importing a "split" limitation from the specifications into the claims.
