| 11:19 EDT |  | BSX, MDT | Appeals court vacates ruling that Medtronic did not infringe Boston Scientific
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit overturned a lower court ruling of noninfringement in favor of Medtronic (MDT). The appeals court said that the lower court relied on a "legally incorrect allocation of the burden of proof to find noninfringement in the limited circumstances of this case" and incorrectly construed the claim terms in the suit between Medtronic and Boston Scientific (BSX). The appeals court vacated the prior ruling and remanded the case for further proceedings. |
