Patent infringement action not rendered moot by expiry of the patent.
The plaintiffs sought an order confirming that their patent infringement action against the defendant would not be rendered moot upon the expiry of the patent in issue.
The Court granted the order, finding that the issues of infringement, invalidity, and ineligibility would remain live controversies even after the patent expired, and that determining these issues in the current action was more appropriate and efficient than deferring them to a subsequent proceeding.
