The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit today entered judgment on behalf of iWork Software LLC affirming a district court decision to dismiss a declaratory judgment lawsuit brought against iWork by webMethods, Inc. The webMethods suit was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia in response to a patent infringement action commenced by iWork in the Northern District of Illinois against certain users of application integration tools. Fitch Even's litigation team obtained an order transferring the Virginia case to the Northern District of Illinois, and then persuaded that court to dismiss the case on jurisdictional grounds.
Tim Maloney argued for iWork in the District Court defending the District Court ruling on appeal.
