1. AsymmetRx, Inc. v. Biocare Med., LLC, 2009-1094, UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FEDERAL CIRCUIT, September 18, 2009, Decided
OVERVIEW: Commercial licensee of certain patent rights did not have the right to sue for infringement as a "patentee" under 35 U.S.C.S. §§ 100 and 281 because, although the license effected a broad conveyance of rights to the commercial licensee, the patent owner retained substantial interests under the patents, including the right to sue for infringement.
