L’Oréal Faces a Patent Lawsuit By The University of Massachusetts Over Skin Cream
The University of Massachusetts and a Christian religious order can pursue a patent lawsuit against L’Oréal SA over several skin cream brands, a U.S. appeals court said Monday, reversing a lower court.
A Delaware federal judge misconstrued part of UMass’ skin-cream patents when it found them invalid last year, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit said.
The parties and their attorneys did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
