This is a patent lawsuit filed by Plaintiff Duhn Oil Tool, Inc. (“Duhn Oil”) against

18 Cooper Cameron Corporation (“Cameron”). The patent-in-suit is United States Patent No.
19 6,920,925 “Wellhead Isolation Tool” (“the ‘925 patent”). On November 9, 2005, Plaintiff
20 Duhn Oil filed a complaint for patent infringement against Defendant Cameron. (Doc. No. 1.)
21 Following a jury trial and a bench trial on certain issues, and in accordance with the jury's
22 verdict and the Court’s orders, the Court issues judgment under Federal Rule of Civil
23 Procedure 58(a).
24

IT IS ORDERED AND ADJUDGED THAT:

25

Claims 1, 2, 4, 5, 19, and 29 of the ‘925 patent are invalid for anticipation by the ‘94

26 catalog under 35 U.S.C. § 102. (Doc. No. 764.)
27

Claim 3 is invalid as obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103. (Doc. No. 775.)

28

Therefore, all asserted claims of the ‘925 patent are invalid. (Doc. Nos. 764, 775.) The

4 § 285.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
