Federal Court Dismisses Broadcom Complaint Against Qualcomm

2009/03/19

Qualcomm Incorporated announced in a press release that the United States District Court for the Southern District of California granted Qualcomm's motion to dismiss a lawsuit brought by Broadcom seeking a declaration that Qualcomm's patents are exhausted and unenforceable.

 

US District Court Judge Hayes held that Broadcom failed to show it was entitled to declaratory relief because it did not identify any specific patents which were allegedly exhausted, or an exhaustion triggering sale or license.

 

The court also ruled that Broadcom's purported injuries were too speculative to support the claims alleged.

 

The case, filed in 2008, is Broadcom v. Qualcomm, Case No. 08cv1829 WQH.

 

Qualcomm Incorporated is a leader in developing and delivering innovative digital wireless communications products and services based on CDMA and other advanced technologies.
