Canadian wireless company Research in Motion (RIM) today announced
that the High Court of Justice in the UK has ruled in favor of RIM UK in
its patent dispute with In Pro, ruling In Pro's UK patent (European
Patent EP 0892947B1) invalid.
The UK decision follows a similar decision in Germany. Last week, the
German Nullity Court in Munich ruled In Pro's patents invalid. In Pro
may appeal the UK decision to the Court of Appeal.
In Pro, a patent holding firm based in Luxembourg, claimed that
certain features of RIM's Blackberry mobile devices violated patents
held by In Pro.
