Suing time again...... Microsoft Corp has filed a case against Motorola Inc on 9th November in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington at Seattle.
Microsoft accuses the Motorola of charging excessive royalties on network technology used in Microsoft's Xbox game system.
Is this counter suing or revenge? The suit comes a month after Microsoft charged that its former ally Motorola infringed a number of its patents in its Android-based smartphones, which run on software built by Google Inc.
The suit also alleges that Motorola breached its commitments to standards organizations that allow other companies to license its patents relating to wireless technology and video coding, which are used in Microsoft's Xbox gaming console.
According to Microsoft, Motorola demanded "royalties that are excessive and discriminatory," and asked the court for compensation from Motorola.
