How later courts describe this case

  • holding aggravating circumstances of “prior violent felony” and “continuing threat” were not duplicative and therefore the weighing process was not skewed
  • suggesting that using the singular form of a word, like “cabinet,” to describe an apparatus precludes the assertion that multiple units, like “cabinets,” literally infringe the claim
  • “The presumption of regularity attaches to this situation, requiring this court to presume, in the absence of a contrary showing, that the trial court acted in accordance with its ruling[.]”
  • to interpret disputed terms, court considers specification and prosecution history
