`DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
`OF INDEFINITENESS, LACK OF ENABLEMENT,
`AND LACK OF WRITTEN DESCRIPTION UNDER 35 U.S.C. § 112
`
`
`Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 56 and 35 U.S.C. § 112, Defendant JPMorgan Chase &
`
`Co. ("Defendant") respectfully moves for summary judgment of invalidity of all asserted claims
`
`(namely, claims 1-6, 10-12, 14-16, and 35 of U.S. Patent No. 5,987,500; claim 4 of U.S. Patent No.
`
`8,037,158; and claims 1-8 and 10-11 of U.S. Patent No. 8,108,492) for indefiniteness, lack of
`
`enablement, and lack of written description.
`
`As set forth more fully in the accompanying Brief in Support and the attached
`
`exhibits, there can be no genuine dispute that the patents-in-suit fail to satisfy the disclosure
`
`requirements of 35 U.S.C. § 112(a) and (b). In particular, nearly all the terms from among the
`
`asserted claims are not amenable to construction—and even if the Court adopts the constructions
`
`proposed by Pi-Net for certain terms, those constructions fail to provide any meaningful notice of
`
`the scope of the asserted claims. Moreover, the specification fails to show possession of, or enable
`
`a person of skill to make and use, at least the claim elements directed to a "value-added network

`
`switch," "object routing," and "back-end" systems. Thus, as discussed more fully in the
`
`accompanying Brief, the Court should declare all asserted claims invalid.
