United States Federal Circuit
Billups-Rothenberg, Inc. v. Associated Regional & Uni.of Pathologist, Inc., 2010-1401
In a patent infringement action involving a genetic test for Type I hereditary hemochromatosis, summary judgment in favor of defendants on invalidity grounds is affirmed where the first asserted claims lacked sufficient written description while the second claims were anticipated because a previous patent disclosed the claimed genetic test for a specific mutation implicated in Type I hereditary hemochromatosis.
