09/26/24	Shaf Intl Inc v. First Mfg Co Inc 2:20-CV-01242 ( E.D. NY )	ORDER: For the reasons explained in the attached Memorandum and Order, the Court construes the term "coupled" as meaning "directly attached." In addition, the Court denies Defendant's motion for summary judgment on invalidity and grants Plaintiff's cross-motion for summary judgment on this issue and finds that the Patent is valid as a matter of law. The Court finds that the Accused Products do not infringe Patent claims 1 through 10 as a matter of law, and as a result, the Court grants Defendant's motion for summary judgment of noninfringement as to those claims. Both parties' cross-motions for summary judgment on infringement are denied as to claims 11 through 18. Plaintiff's infringement cause of action will proceed as to those Patent claims. Finally, because neither party has moved for summary judgment on the false marking claim, that claim will also proceed to trial. Ordered by Judge Pamela K. Chen on 9/26/2024.
