SUMMARY JUDGMENT WAS NOT WARRANTED ON PATENTEE'S MOTION FOR PARTIAL SUMMARY JUDGMENT AS TO INDUCEMENT

摘要

A genuine issue of material fact existed as to whether individuals who allegedly induced the infringement of patents were corporate officers or mere employees. Thus, summary judgment was not warranted on the patentee's motion for partial summary judgment as to inducement in its patent infringement suit against those individuals. Wordtech Systems, Inc. v. Integrated Network Solutions, Inc., 2011 WL 2671516 (E.D. Cal. 2011)
