Sherrow v. United States

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• rejecting the district court's claim construction because it rendered superfluous the claim requirement for openings adjacent to the end walls
• finding that defendant’s arguments of cost of transporting witnesses did not constitute the type of “oppressiveness and vexation” disproportionate to the plaintiff’s convenience in suing in Massachusetts rather than Hong Kong for wrongful death of his wife in a hotel pool
• “we find no error in the district court’s choice of the prima facie standard. A full-blown evidentiary hearing was not necessary in this case because the facts were, in all essential respects, undisputed. In such circumstances, the prima facie standard is both appropriate and preferred.”
