Fiserv Inc., the manager of check-processing and cash machines, will have to defend itself again in a patent-infringement lawsuit brought by Advanced Software Design Corp. after an appeals court revived the case.

A trial judge erred in her reasoning when she said Brookfield, Wisconsin-based Fiserv wasn’t infringing an Advanced Software patent, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington said in an opinion on its website yesterday. The case was remanded to the lower court for review.
