Applera Corp. v. Enzo Biochem, Inc.
Petition for certiorari denied on June 20, 2011
Docket No. | Op. Below | Argument | Opinion | Vote | Author | Term |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
10-426 | Federal Cir. | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | OT 2010 |
Issue: Whether the Federal Circuit's standard for finding that a patent’s claims are “definite,"? which is met as long as the language of a claim is not “insolubly ambiguous"? or is capable of being construed, is consistent with the language of 35 U.S.C. § 112, which provides that the patent must include “claims particularly pointing out and distinctly claiming the subject matter which the applicant regards as his invention.”?
