Before MARCUS, JILL PRYOR and FAY, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

Dr. Jack Krauser appeals the district court’s order granting summary 

judgment in favor of BioHorizons, Inc., BioLok International, Inc., and 

BioHorizons Implant Systems, Inc. (collectively, “BioHorizons”) in his lawsuit 

seeking a declaration that he was the owner of the subject matter set forth in a 

variety of BioHorizons’s patents and associated federal registrations regarding 

dental implant systems. On appeal, Dr. Krauser argues based on an October 1996 

agreement that the district court erred in concluding that he had no contractual 

claim to ownership in the dental implant systems. Upon a thorough review of the 

briefs and record, and with the benefit of oral argument, we find no error and 

affirm based on the well-reasoned summary judgment opinion and order of the 

district court, entered on October 1, 2012. 

AFFIRMED.
