The American wing of Lenovo has sued Nokia in a California federal court in an attempt to stop the telecoms equipment biz from enforcing its 19 patents pertaining to video decoding.
The suit, filed earlier this week, targets Nokia Technologies Oy, a subsidiary of the Finnish tech giant responsible for managing and licensing its patents and intellectual property rights. Among the thousands of patents it holds are several to do with the H.264 video compression standard (which is the most widely used).
