Facts

Emblaze Ltd. filed an infringement lawsuit against Apple Inc.

PLAINTIFF'S CONTENTIONS:
Emblaze alleged that it was an international corporation that operated its business worldwide, developing and marketing innovative high-tech technologies and products. Emblaze alleged that it owned the right to several patents, including U.S. Patent No. 6,389,473. The patent claimed methods for real-time broadcasting over a network, like the Internet. Emblaze alleged that it first unveiled this technology in 1998 when it streamed live video broadcast from the White House during Easter 1998.

Emblaze sued Apple for patent infringement, claiming that it was harmed as a result of Apple's infringing conduct.

DEFENDANT'S CONTENTIONS:
Apple denied Emblaze's allegations, and asserted various affirmative defenses. Apple also filed a counter-claim for declaration of non-infringement and declaration of patent invalidity.

Result

The jury rendered a defense verdict.
