Heading: NMT’s request for summary judgment

Text: NMT argues that we should award it summary judgment of infringement. This court defers to the district court’s denial of summary judgment. See Suntiger, Inc. v. Sci. Research Funding Group, 189 F.3d 1327, 1333 (Fed. Cir. 1999) (“When a district court grants summary judgment, we review without deference to the trial court . . . . By contrast, when a district court denies summary judgment, we review that decision with considerable deference to the court.”). Accordingly, we decline NMT’s request to end the case in its favor now, but on remand the district court may reconsider the question of summary judgment for NMT based upon this court’s discussion of claim construction.
