Kodak v. Apple

Posted by: Ventsi Ventsi in Trade MarkPatentsPatentabilityPatent searchPatent filingpatentdefencesDecisionCopyrights on

IPwatchdog reported the news that Kodak filed a lawsuit against Apple for infringement on patents held by Kodak and used in iPhone, iPod, Mac, etc..
News reports also indicate that Kodak has sued Research in Motion (RIM), maker of the Blackberry.

The purpose of such cases is not simply related to the protection of patents. Most large corporations began to use their intellectual property as a competitive weapon to help in the battle for market leadership.
Much of similar lawsuits ended with agreements between the parties with the goal of everyone is happy.
For example, one hypothesis is when the market position of a company A is threatened by another company B that owns the new technology, while A holds intellectual property, parts of which may be used in the products of company B, company A brought litigation to reach an agreement that would give it access to new technology owned by company B.
