Teleflex

Ficosa North America Corporation, Fico Cables, S.A., and Ficosa North America S.A. de C.V. ("Ficosa") appeal the final judgment of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan entered in favor of Teleflex, Inc. ("Teleflex"). The district court entered judgment following a jury verdict that Ficosa infringed Teleflex's U.S. Patent No. 5,632,182 ("the `182 patent"), and that Teleflex's U.S. Patent No. 4,581,953 ("the `953 patent") and the `182 patent were not invalid. Ficosa appeals the denial of its motion for judgment as a matter of law ("JMOL") of non-infringement of claim 1 of the `182 patent, the grant of summary judgment of no best mode violation in the `182 patent, the denial of its JMOL motion of invalidity of the `182 patent, and the denial of its JMOL motion of invalidity of the `953 patent. Because the district court correctly granted summary judgment of no best mode violation and substantial evidence supports the jury verdict of infringement and validity, we affirm the district court's decision on appeal.
