Fraud Prevention and Security Firm Gemalto Looses With Patent Fight With Google

Google and its partners company that makes the android phones have defeated many contenders that have filed the lawsuit against Google and also have claimed that the Android has put the world to risk because the Google don’t care about fraud prevention techniques but a panel of three judge in the country’s top level court have said that the Android haven’t violated any rule or anything of Gemalto, which is French Security firm. Yesterday a document from the federal court has put the 4 year long battle to an end the Gemalto file a case against Google, Samsung, HTC and Motorola in Eastern Districts of Texas with claim that Android phones have memory utilization feature that it had developed first in Austin research center. Gemalto’s invention will allow low power devices to run high level programming languages and it accuses several companies about violation of the patents. The companies have successfully argued that their Smartphone didn’t violated any patents because they’re not “Resource constrained devices” as Gemalto says in patents but they are “Rely on off chip memory to run java programs”

“It's fairly unusual that Gemalto lost on a summary judgment ruling at all. Summary judgment is when judges rule on a case without a jury trial because they believe the case can be resolved solely on a legal basis, without any need for the kind of fact-finding involved with a jury trial. Such rulings are fairly common in patent cases, but not in the Eastern District of Texas, where judges prefer to refer litigants to a jury trial.” Read More at arstechnica

In defense, Gemalto said that the Android phone uses their technology when they “temporarily load the program from off chip to On-Chip cache memory right prior of execution” but luckily the court argued that the Cache memory is something that is totally different from the main memory but not sufficient for infringement purpose.
