-1. Federal Circuit Upholds Finding that Unauthenticated Source Code Printout Is Inadmissible as Evidence of Infringement
The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit recently affirmed two district courts' decisions in which the courts granted Sharp's and Vizio's motions for summary judgement of noninfringement against Wi-LAN.
