LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwired - Jan 21, 2016) - Decision Diagnostics Corp. (
The Federal Circuit Rule 36 permits the Circuit Court to dispose of legal challenges without the necessity of a written legal opinion. These rulings are rendered when the decision has no precedential value and when the lower court rulings are adjudged to be correct. Rule 36 rulings are very rarely challenged or appealed.
Keith Berman Director, CFO and Secretary of Decision Diagnostics, stated, "The Circuit Court has again and finally affirmed the legal position that we originally took nearly three years ago. They have now definitively and adamantly denied J&J/Lifescan's claims regarding U.S. Patent No. 7,250,105, which also mitigates J&J/Lifescan's assertions of patent infringement against us. In rendering this ruling, the Circuit Court has now entirely vindicated all of our prior actions and processes."
Mr. Berman concluded, "We intend a comprehensive update in the next several days discussing these matters and their implications for our company. In the meantime we wish to emphasize that we have now won this war and won it conclusively."
