-Files Motion for Preliminary and Permanent Injunction Against Samsung-
IRVINE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / December 11, 2024 / Netlist, Inc. (OTCQB:NLST) today announced that its U.S. Patent Nos. 10,268,608 was upheld by the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) and found not to be invalid. This patent was part of a November 2024 jury verdict in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (EDTX) where Netlist won a $118 million damages award against Samsung.
Netlist filed a motion with the EDTX for a preliminary and permanent injunction against Samsung regarding all infringing products related to the ‘608 patent, which includes Samsung DDR4 LRDIMMs. The court has scheduled a hearing on Netlist’s injunction motion for December 23, 2024.
C.K. Hong, Netlist’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “The ‘608 has gone through the IPR process to Final Written Decision and none of the challenged claims were found to be unpatentable. We are pleased that the PTAB has confirmed the validity of this patent after a jury recently found it to be valid and infringed by Samsung. With the November jury verdict and the validation by the PTAB we now have the opportunity for the court to consider Netlist’s injunction request.”
