Read full decision. Automatically generated summary:

This is an action for infringement under the Patent Act launched by Angelcare against Munchkin. ... At issue is the infringement and validity of six patents, all relating to either diaper pail cassettes or assemblies between cassettes and the diaper pails with which they are used. ... The Defendants deny any infringement and counterclaim that all six patents are invalid on various grounds: anticipation, obviousness, overbreadth, insufficiency, lack of utility, and, in the alternative, double-patenting. ... As a result, with the exception of Claims 1, 3, 6 and 8 of the 384 Patent, which are invalid for anticipation, none of the claims which have been infringed suffers from any of the invalidity grounds alleged by Munchkin.
