Interventional technology developer AngioDynamics said that it has won a legal ruling in patent litigation brought by VNUS Medical Technologies against Diomed, Vascular Solutions, and AngioDynamics.
The Queensbury, NJ-based firm said that its motion for summary judgment of no willful infringement was granted in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. In her ruling, Judge Maxine Chesney found that VNUS was not able to establish that AngioDynamics willfully infringed the VNUS patents, ruling that willful infringement is not a trialable issue against AngioDynamics.
The trial start date has now been delayed, with a new start date not set yet due to time constraints of the court, AngioDynamics said.
