Judge Invalidates 13 Motorola Patent Claims Against Microsoft

Posted by timothy on from the lucky-number dept.

walterbyrd writes "Microsoft scored a victory against Google-owned Motorola Mobility this week after a judge scrapped 13 of the latter party's patent claims in a years-long dispute over H.264-related royalties. Waged in U.S. and German courts, the battle involves three patents (7,310,374, 7,310,375, and 7,310,376) that Motorola licenses to Microsoft for several products, including the Xbox 360, Windows and Windows Phone. PJ is commenting on the case over at Groklaw.net."

    The patents were *not* invalidated.

    Some claims within the patents were invalidated.
