Microsoft loses patent decision
From Times Wire Services
A U.S. District Court judge in Los Angeles has ruled that Microsoft Corp. will have to pay Alcatel-Lucent more than $500 million for infringing two patents.
One patent covers how software users fill out forms. The other is related to using a stylus on a tablet computer.
Judge Marilyn L. Huff denied Microsoft’s request to reconsider the jury’s decision.
