Acer Files Counterclaim Against HP
July 20, 2007
TAIPEI, Taiwan – Taiwan’s Acer Inc. said Friday it has filed a counterclaim in a U.S. court against a patent infringement lawsuit by Hewlett-Packard Co.
Acer said in a statement it filed the counterclaim Thursday with the District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
In late March, HP filed a lawsuit at the same court, alleging Acer had violated five patents covering technologies that included DVD editing, managing power consumption in portable computers and ways to use multiple microprocessor chips.
HP also filed another lawsuit against Acer in April at the International Trade Commission alleging infringement of four of the same patents.
