A federal jury in San Diego ruled that Broadcom did not infringe two patents for digital video compression owned by QUALCOMM.
“This is a victory not just for Broadcom but for the entire digital video community, against an attempt by Qualcomm once again to tax an important new technology — in this instance based upon the claims of a single patent. The trial not only showed that Qualcomm was wrong about Broadcom’s alleged infringement, but also cast a bright light on Qualcomm’s penchant for abusing the rules and procedures of industry standards-making bodies,” said David A. Dull, Broadcom’s Senior Vice President and General Counsel.
