| HTC Vs Nokia |
Nokia filed
paperwork for its lawsuit against HTC in the ITC, but it will be dropping three
claims and focusing on four. The ITC usually expects a few claims to be dropped
before beginning litigation in order to follow the time constraint. It seems
that usually a case is filed in one court and then some claims are dropped and
continued in the ITC. In the ITC is where companies try to give as much power
as possible to each patent by attempting to put an injunction on the opposing
product.
However, in Germany Nokia was suing HTc on a 40
claim case and they won an injunction case. Now, HTC is countersuing Nokia
which will likely drag on the case and prevent the injunction from happening so
soon.
interesting article. i guess it's more realistic for ITC to handle "streamlined" cases / complaints. who knows how long it'd take otherwise!
