Precedential decision clarifies area of law involving §102(g)(2) Alexandria, Va. (October 13, 2010) – The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued a precedential decision on October 13, 2010 in Solvay S.A. v. Honeywell International, Inc. (2009-1161). In an unanimous opinion, the court reversed the ruling by the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware that claims 1, 5, 7, 10, and 11 of Solvay's U.S. Patent No. 6,730,817 (the ‘817 patent) were invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 102(g)(2), and affirmed the district court's decision that those claims were infringed by Honeywell. The Federal Circuit remanded the case to the district court for further proceedings.
