Cordis says district judge upholds patent infringement verdicts against Boston Scientific, Medtronic
New York, March 27 - Cordis Corp. said that U.S. district judge Sue Robinson upheld two March 2005 jury verdicts that patents for balloon expandable stents were valid and infringed by Boston Scientific Corp. and Medtronic, Inc.
The juries found Boston Scientific's NIR stent infringed Cordis' Palmaz patent and Medtronic's GFX and Microstent II infringed both the Palmaz and Schatz patents.
A decision on damages has been deferred, Cordis said in a news release.
Cordis is a Miami-based subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson.
