LAW.COM - Dec 20 - U.S. District Judge Alan Albright ruled Tinder's interface is eligible for patenting, moving Match Group's suit against rival Bumble one step forward. The judge turned away Bumble's claim that two patents owned by Match Group are ineligible for patenting under Section 101 of the Patent Act. Bumble had argued the patents are directed to the abstract concepts of matchmaking and picking cards out of a stack. He also turned away Bumble's motion to dismiss Match's trade secret claims, saying it was too early in the case to rule on them.
