Junzhiquan wins the 17th invalidation request for the escort of luco 99 patent
2018.06.20
Entrusted by Netac Technology Co., Ltd., Guangdong Junzhiquan Law Firm and Shenzhen Junzhiquan Intellectual Property Agency Co., Ltd. defended against a request for invalidation of Netac's flash disk core patent (patent number: 99117225.6) once again, and won the case. This is the latest in the winning streak notched up by Junzhiquan, solidifying Netac's patent operations.
Liu Jun, a lawyer from Guangdong Junzhiquan Law Firm, represented Netac in the "99 patent" infringement case in 2002. The case was hailed as the No. 1 IP case in China's IT industry. Since 2002, the patent has been the core in Netac's patent operations, as it has helped Netac rack up considerate revenue from patent operations. That being so, the patent has been understandably targeted with a string of invalidation requests from many accused infringers.
In January this year, ADATA Technology (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. filed with the Reexamination Board the 17th request for patent invalidation (No. 4W106815). The Board has recently issued a decision over its review of the invalidation request.
Decision over the Invalidation Request Review
(No. 36180)
In accordance with the provisions of Article 46 (1) of the Patent Law, the Patent Reexamination Board has examined the request for invalidation of the aforementioned patent rights, and ruled that:
oThe patent rights declared are totally invalid.
oThe patent rights declared are partially invalid.
xThe patent rights remain valid.
As shown in the figure below, the patent infringement litigation between ADATA and Netac began in May 2016. Up to now, there have been several litigation and invalidation cases between the two parties, among which the litigation cases are still in progress. Junzhiquan has helped Netac win the defense against all the requests for the patent invalidation.
