How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- noting that a patent owner is entitled to notify customers of its patent rights unless the communication was made in bad faith
- finding that a district court’s determination during a preliminary injunction hearing that the validity of the patent is a close question precludes the infringement suit from being deemed objectively baseless
- emphasizing “the rarity of an injunction being granted against communicating with others concerning one’s patent rights” because such an injunction is not “an injunction against infringement, but an injunction against communication”
