Date Filed Document Text
February 18, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 166 JUDGMENT by Judge George H. Wu. IT HEREBY IS ADJUDGED THAT: (a) claims 43, 44, 45 and 47 of the '804 patent are invalid for failure to meet the written description requirement of 35 U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph for the reasons set forth in D.I. 272; questions of fact remain as to whether each of claims 43-47 is invalid for failure to meet the written description requirement of 35 U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph based on additional grounds asserted by Pentair, but those questions of fact do not impact the Court's conclusion that claims 43, 44, 45 and 47 are invalid. Accordingly, IT IS FURTHER ADJUDGED THAT Pentair is the prevailing party in this action, that Hayward takes nothing from Pentair and that any and all remaining claims and counterclaims are dismissed as moot or dismissed as per the proposed Order Dismissing Plaintiff's Invalidity Cause of Action re Claim 46 filed on February 13, 2015. (See attached document for details.) (MD JS-6, Case Terminated). (lom)
