Federal Circuit Affirms Verdict of Noninfringement in EDVA case
In a brief Order (found here) on May 5, the Federal Circuit affirmed Limelight Network’s victory over Level 3 Communications in a jury trial before Judge Mark Davis in January, 2009. Level 3 Comm., Inc. v. Limelight Networks, Inc., Case No. 2:07CV589 (E.D. Va.). In the trial, which was the first patent trial overseen by Judge Davis, the jury found that Limelight did not infringe the two patents asserted by Level 3 but rejected Limelight’s claim that the patents were invalid. The patents at issue covered Internet content delivery technology which provides web site operators faster delivery for content such as video, games, music and software.
