ITC Judge Finds Samsung Innocent of Section 337 Violations

Administrative Law Judge Cameron Elliot of the International Trade Commission found Samsung committed no Tariff Act Section 337 violations by importing smartphones alleged to have infringed four patents asserted by flexible electronics manufacturer Dynamics, said an initial determination notice (login required) he signed Tuesday in docket 337-TA-1170. Dynamics alleged in June 2019 that Samsung smartphones infringed its patents for cards with emulators that transmit information to magnetic strip readers. Neither Dynamics nor Samsung commented.
