Eighth Circuit: Hamid Yazdianpour v. Safeblood Technologies, Inc.

Any party to a breached contract has standing.

A reasonable finder of fact could hold that PL had no duty to investigate the status of a foreign patent, given explicit assurances of Deft.

Failure to deliver patent diminished the value of the agreement, didn't cancel distributorship.

Non-renewal of JMOL bars sufficient evidence claims.

Prejudgment interest excessively speculative.
