ITC Asks for Comments on Nokia Attempt to Block HTC Cellphones

The International Trade Commission is asking for comments by about June 8 on public interest factors arising from Nokia’s May 23 patent complaint on cellphones from HTC. Nokia seeks to block imports of infringing HTC cellphone models, including the HTC One S, One V, One X, Evo 4G LTE, Droid Incredible 4G LTE, Droid DNA, One X+, One VX, First, and One, through issuance of cease and desist and limited exclusion orders (see 13052923). It also requests the limited exclusion order block imports of components of the infringing cellphones, such as chipsets, to prevent evasion of any import ban.
