..our wonderful intellectual property law system at work..

Nokia has filed actions against all three companies in Mannheim’s and Munich’s respective regional courts.
Nokia has also filed complaints against HTC before the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC), the Federal District Court of Delaware and the regional court in Düsseldorf.
