United States Federal Circuit
Arkema, Inc. v. Honeywell International, Inc., 12-1308
In declaratory action seeking ruling that plaintiff was not an indirect infringer of defendant's '120 and '882 patents, which cover methods of using HFO-1234yf, a next generation automotive refrigerant in automobile air conditioning systems, when plaintiff entered into contracts to supply to automobile manufacturers for use in automobile air conditioning systems, judgment dismissing suit and denying plaintiff's motion to supplement complaint is reversed and remanded, where the district court erred in ruling that there was no justiciable controversy.
