RFMD ITC lawsuit withdrawn by Peregrine
RFMD believes the decision to terminate the ITC proceedings is because no infringement of Peregrine's patents occurred
Peregrine Semiconductor has filed a motion to voluntarily withdraw the lawsuit against RF Micro Devices with the International Trade Commission (ITC) in February 2012.
RFMD believes the decision by Peregrine to terminate the ITC proceeding is in response to developments in the case that have consistently validated RFMD's position that no infringement of Peregrine's patents occurred.
The firm also says that the validity of the asserted Peregrine patents is clearly in doubt. RFMD maintains that it respects the intellectual property rights of others and takes care to avoid infringements.
RFMD says it will continue to vigorously defend its position in the companion case filed by Peregrine in April 2012 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California.
