Federal Circuit, March 31, 2004
“Unova, Inc. appeals from the decision of the United States District Court for the Central District of California entering summary judgment in favor of Hewlett-Packard Company on the ground that a settlement agreement between Unova and Compaq Computer Corporation released Hewlett-Packard from liability for infringement of various patents owned by Unova….Because we conclude that the Unova-Compaq settlement agreement did not release Hewlett-Packard from liability for infringement of Unova’s patents, we reverse and remand.”
