From Times Wire Services
Samsung Electronics Co. sued competitor Sharp Corp., Japan’s largest maker of liquid-crystal displays, claiming that it infringed four U.S. patents for the technology used in televisions and computer monitors.
Sharp is wrongly importing “products and processes” protected by patents awarded since 2004, Samsung, based in Suwon, South Korea, claimed in a complaint filed Dec. 21 in federal court in Wilmington, Del.
The action is part of a continuing battle between the two companies.
