Heading: Validity and Infringement of the '534 Patent

Text: The district court granted CTS's motions for summary judgment that the '534 patent was invalid as anticipated, obvious, and lacking written description support, and that it was not infringed. See '534 Anticipation and Obviousness Opinion, No. SA CV 02-578; '534 Written Description Opinion, No. SA CV 02-578; '534 Noninfringement Opinion, No. SA CV 02-578. In its briefs, Ultimax requested reversal of the court's determinations, particularly its noninfringement determination. However, at oral argument, Ultimax stated, with respect to claims 10 and 11 of the '534 patent, that it was not concerned with the court's finding of invalidity of claims 10 and 11. See Oral Arg. 12:55-14:58, Oct. 5, 2009, available at http://oralarguments. cafc.uscourts.gov/mp3/XXXX-XXXX.mp3. Because Ultimax has waived the argument that the '534 patent is not invalid, its argument as to infringement is moot. We therefore dismiss Ultimax's appeal with respect to the '534 patent.
