KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia. - Tuesday, December 16th 2014 [ME NewsWire]
(BUSINESS
WIRE) ZTE Corporation noted the High Court of Malaya at Kuala Lumpur
today ordered Vringo Infrastructure to bear the legal costs of ZTE
Malaysia, after Vringo withdrew an application for an interlocutory
injunction against certain ZTE network products with LTE technology in
Malaysia.
ZTE is committed to defending a pending lawsuit in
Malaysia related to the MY-142706 patent initiated by Vringo, and
reserves the right to pursue all other legal actions in Malaysia and
other jurisdictions to safeguard the interests of ZTE and its customers.
In
September, Vringo withdrew an infringement claim against ZTE related to
Patent EP (UK) 1 808 029, the equivalent of MY-142706 in the United
Kingdom, from an impending trial before the UK High Court of Justice
Chancery Division court.
As a globally-leading technology
innovator, ZTE respects the intellectual property of other companies and
is willing to negotiate royalty fees with license holders based on
FRAND principles. ZTE steadfastly opposes all forms of abuses of
intellectual property by non-practicing entities that use the threat of
litigation and injunction to support their demands for unfair licensing
fees.
