United States Federal Circuit

In this case involving plaintiff’s ‘706 patent, which is directed to personal communication services systems whereby users are provided with the ability to access a communications network from diverse locations, summary judgment in favor of defendant on grounds of non-infringement is affirmed, where the district court’s claim construction of “personal identification number” to mean “associated with the individual and not the device” was not in error, as it requires only that a personal identification number is not permanently associated with a specific communications unit or location.
