Judge Pratt emphasized that a significant amount of time and effort had been invested in resolving the case, with the court and parties producing “thousands of pages of briefing” and months of work leading up to the summary judgment and claim construction order.
Knauf Insulation vs Johns Manville Lawsuit : Background of the Case
The lawsuit began when Knauf accused Johns Manville of patent infringement concerning its insulation products. Johns Manville, represented by Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan LLP and Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP, managed to stay the case multiple times. Despite these delays, the court eventually ruled in favor of Johns Manville on most of the claims, leaving only a small portion of the dispute unresolved before the parties agreed to settle.
Settlement and Legal Representation
While the terms of the settlement have not been disclosed, both parties have agreed to resolve the dispute outside of court. Knauf Insulation was represented by Woodard Emhardt Henry Reeves & Wagner LLP and Dentons Bingham Greenebaum. Johns Manville’s legal team included attorneys from Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan LLP and Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP.
