Under the All-Elements Rule, the doctrine of equivalents must be applied to individual claim limitations, not to the claim as a whole

A patentee must demonstrate that each element of the claim is met in the accused product, either literally or by an equivalent

This is a meaningful burden, and the patentee must present specific, persuasive evidence and argument to rebut the presumption

This is a serious argument that must be confronted directly in our DOE contentions and in any subsequent briefing
