U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida granted a rare summary judgment in favor of Arthrex and chastised DePuy Mitek for failing to abide by prior settlement agreements, in which it had agreed to stop practicing the method behind Arthrax’s system.

DePuy Mitek, based in Raynham, Mass., claimed that it couldn’t be responsible for the infringement because it was carried out by surgeons using the device, according to a report from MassDevice.
