Apple Seeks Relief to Slash the Financial Penalty awarded to VirnetX due to Jurors not being told about 2 Invalidated Patents
It seems like forever and a day that Apple has been battling with VirnetX over patent infringement matters. One of our reports dates back to 2012 titled Apple Loses FaceTime Patent Lawsuit to VirnetX. We covered the battle over the years and reported on this at least three times this year: 01, 02 & 03.
It s being reported today by Bloomberg that Apple has said that its financial penalty for infringing VirnetX Holdings Corp. patents could swell to more than $1 billion if a federal judge in Texas grants requests for additional interest and royalty payments on top of what juries in two separate cases have ordered the iPhone maker to pay.
