So I don't have to read a whole court brief, what were they suing about?

I think it was the 'chassis' FCU being the 'firearm' concept.

Steyr basically claimed the modular function of 320 infringed on their patent. Court said nope.

Steyr could file an appeal. Or just go away and accept the judgment.

The Court of Appeals doesn’t have to accept the case, even if an appeal is filed.

Holy cats. At first glance, I thought the odds were pretty much against SIG. Turns out it was a one-punch fight over drafting a challenging sequence of claims about the equivalent of a permanenent structural support (ie., one freakin' cross pin). Damn. Good for SIG, but it's a day for surprises.

Hilarious. Some people were claiming this suit was going to destroy Sig and Steyr was going to get control of the military contract.

Interesting read for sure. Its almost like Sig Had
their lawyers do some work before coming up with their concept in the p250 to make sure they wouldn't run afoul...

This reminds me of when Microtech tried to sue Kershaw ZT.
