Inland Steel Company v. Ltv Steel Company, and Usx Corporation

Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit

Decided April 9, 2004No. 03-1483PublishedCited by 24 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

BRYSON, Circuit Judge.

This case arises from a patent infringement action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, No. 91-CV-4451, in which Inland Steel Company accused USX Corporation of patent infringement. USX appeals from a decision of the district court denying its motion for attorney fees and costs based on the district court’s ruling that USX was not a “prevailing party.” We reverse the district court’s ruling on USX’s status as a prevailing party and remand for the district court to determine whether USX is entitled to attorney fees and costs.
