J. Boulware grants the online casino’s motion to remand this patent infringement suit brought against its former employee who transferred to the casino full rights to an invention of his involving cashless gaming. The inventor has not satisfied his burden of showing why removal is appropriate, and when original jurisdiction exists under a certain U.S. Code, but the matter was filed in a state court, it may be removed to federal court. The case is to be remanded If, before final judgment, it appears that the district court lacks subject matter jurisdiction.

J. Gorton partially denies an e-commerce company’s motion to dismiss claims brought against it for patent infringement by a tech company. The e-commerce company argues that searching and manipulating a database, monitoring web system usage and tailoring advertising to website users are abstract ideas ineligible for patenting, and this is mostly true, but one of the patents contains an inventive concept that may be patent-eligible.
Court: USDC Massachusetts, Judge: Gorton, Filed On: August 16, 2023, Case #: 1:23cv11351, NOS: Patent - Property Rights, Categories: patent, technology
J. Albregts grants the synthetic urine laboratory’s motion to compel production of the investment group’s synthetic urine ingredients in this patent infringement suit. The investment group did not previously list its ingredients as specifically as possible and did not list every step in the manufacturing process.

J. Whitehead denies Microsoft's motion for judgment on the pleadings regarding the computer consulting company's claim that Microsoft wrongfully uses the former's patented technology connected to “systems and techniques for archiving and restoring files" within its file hosting service "Microsoft OneDrive." The computer consulting company sufficiently argues that the asserted patents focus on allowing real-time data capture and versioning of prior files, which is patentable, because they act as a "specific improvement to backup technology that fixes problems in the prior art, including data loss between backups," not as a general idea.
Court: USDC Western District of Washington, Judge: Whitehead, Filed On: June 12, 2023, Case #: 2:22cv1545, NOS: Patent - Property Rights, Categories: patent, technology

J. Brown denies partial summary judgment and finds the defendant’s hydradermabrasion device, known as the “Skinwave,” did not infringe on the litigant’s competing device due to the lack of a manifold system. However, the court finds the litigant prevailed on its claim for validity, finding its patent sufficiently distinguished itself from another one of its device patents because it contained a manifold system.
