BriarTek Files Section 337 Enforcement Complaint on Two-Way Satellite Comm Devices
BriarTek filed a section 337 enforcement complaint April 10, alleging Delorme is continuing to offer for sale imported two-way global satellite communication devices that infringe BriarTek’s patents despite an agreement not to. According to BriarTek, a consent order between BriarTek and Delorme that went into effect April 1 barred unlicensed importation and sale of the infringing devices.

Along with a cease and desist order, BriarTek is requesting penalties in the amount of twice the value of the good, or $100,000, whichever is greater.
