This nonprecedential court opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit concerns an appeal by Fintiv, Inc. against Apple Inc. regarding alleged infringement of a patent related to mobile wallets and associated software, termed "widgets." Fintiv had sued Apple, claiming that Apple's products using Apple Pay and Apple Wallet infringed on their patent. The core issue at the district court level, and the focus of this appeal, was the interpretation and identification of a "widget" within Apple's technology, as defined by the patent. The Appeals Court reversed the lower court's summary judgment in favor of Apple, finding that Fintiv presented sufficient circumstantial evidence to raise a genuine dispute regarding the existence of a widget, and remanded the case for further consideration of related claim limitations and other potential grounds for summary judgment.
