McKool Smith Secures Federal Circuit Victory for ParkerVision Against Qualcomm

ParkerVision successfully raised three issues on appeal: first, that the district court erred in granting summary judgment of non-infringement; second, that the district court erred in preventing ParkerVision’s validity expert from offering impactful testimony; and lastly, that the district court abused its discretion in excluding experts’ testimony as unreliable.
