Thanks z. Honestly - yes and no.

I guess SA challenged a claim (part of the patent) and the judge agreed with them that the claim was not enforceable and therefore the 'claim' by SFT that SA infringed was denied?!?

In a printed patent, the claims usually come last. ... The claims are the heart of a patent, in that they define the limits of exactly what the patent does, and does not, cover. That is, the patentee has the right to exclude others from making, using or selling, only those things which are described by the claims.
