in settlement of a licensing dispute.
The Court urged Lenovo to pay the penalty for a license to InterDigital's portfolio of 3G, 4G, and 5G patents and pay in full for past sales dating back to 2007.
The Court will decide whether additional interest is due on the one-time payments.
"We welcome the Court's decision as the first major SEP FRAND judgment that recognizes that a licensee should pay in full for the past infringement of standard essential patents, and we agree with the Court that this could be a powerful way of guarding against patent holdout in the future," commented Josh Schmidt, Chief Legal Officer, InterDigital.
"However, we plan to appeal, as we believe that certain aspects of the decision do not accurately reflect our licensing program."
In January, InterDigital shared winning a critical decision from a U.K. court in the company's litigation against Lenovo.
The Court upheld the lower court decision, confirming that Lenovo infringed a valid and essential InterDigital cellular patent.
In July 2021, the U.K. High Court ruled that the patent-in-suit is valid, infringed, and essential to the 4G LTE standard.
