Motion to dismiss for insufficient pleading is denied
S.O.I. TEC Silicon On Insulator Technologies, S.A., et al. v. MEMC Electronic Materials, Inc., Civ. No. 08-292-SLR, February 20, 2009.
Robinson, J. Defendant’s motion to dismiss, or alternatively for a more definite statement, is denied.
The technology at issue is a process for the production of thin semiconductor material films. Plaintiffs allege that on information and belief, Defendant manufactures products using a method which infringes Plaintiffs’ patents, and that Defendant makes, sells and/or offers for sale silicon on insulator products in the United States. Plaintiffs further allege Defendant’s infringement is willful. The Court finds the notice provided in the complaint is sufficient under Fed. R. Civ. P. 18 and Twombly.
