(NASDAQ: FNJN), a cybersecurity company, provides an update on subsidiary, Finjan, Inc.''s ("Finjan") second patent infringement suit against Blue Coat Systems, Inc. ("Blue Coat") in Finjan v. Blue Coat, 5:15-cv-03295-BLF, before the Honorable Beth Labson Freeman. On December 13, 2016, the Court entered its Order ("the Order") Denying Blue Coat''s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings under 35 U.S.C. § 101 ("the Motion"), filed on September 16, 2016, that asserted claims of Finjan''s U.S. Patent No. 8,677,494 ("the ''494 Patent") are invalid for lack of patentable subject matter. The Order concluded that "the asserted claims of the ''494 patent ...contain an inventive concept sufficient to transform [the] claims into patentable subject matter." The Order can be found on p. 21 of Docket No. 156.
