The federal district court in Tyler, Texas, correctly construed the term “mountable” in a patent for a digital picture frame asserted by Profectus Technology against the manufacturers and sellers of tablet computer devices as “having a feature for mounting,” the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has ruled (Prospectus Technology LLC v. Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., May 26, 2016, Reyna, J.). Based on that construction, the district court also did not err in granting summary judgment to the defendants and its judgment was affirmed.
A full summary of this case has been published on Kluwer IP Law.
