US licensing company Intellectual Ventures (IV) has succeeded in another patent lawsuit against Motorola, a week after it claimed victory against the company.
On March 30, the US District Court for the District of Delaware ruled that Motorola’s Lapdock product infringed US patent 7,120,462, owned by IV.
The patent at the centre of the dispute covers the design for connecting a mobile device with an electronic docking station.
Damages will be determined at a later date.
The ruling follows a similar decision from the Delaware court on March 25 that went in favour of IV.
In that judgment, Motorola was found to have infringed a patent covering multimedia text messaging technology.
Melissa Finocchio, chief litigation counsel at IV, said: “We are grateful for the time and effort each of the juries put into these trials, and for their decisions upholding these important property rights.”
Both companies are also awaiting confirmation of a trial date to decide another patent infringement claim, which the licensing company filed in June 2013.
That case, in which IV asserted seven of its patents, is set to be heard at the US District Court for the Southern District of Florida.
Motorola did not respond to a request for comment.
