7289772

ITC investigation initiated by HTC against Apple, amended in September 2011 to add five Google-sourced patents including U.S. 7,020,849. On 2012-05-15, ALJ Thomas B. Pender terminated the investigation as to the '849 patent and four others for lack of standing; the overall investigation ended by the November 2012 HTC–Apple global settlement and was formally terminated in early 2013.

HTC Corporation sued Apple Inc. in the District of Delaware; the amended complaint added U.S. Patent 7,289,772 among Google-transferred patents. The case was resolved by the Apple-HTC global settlement announced on November 10, 2012.
