LG Files Patent Suit Against Toshiba-Samsung Venture

LG Electronics Inc. of South Korea sued a joint venture of Toshiba Corp. and Samsung Electronics Co. in federal court in Delaware alleging infringement of four U.S. patents for optical-disc technology. Lawyers for Seoul-based LG said in today’s complaint that Toshiba Samsung Storage Technology Corp. of Tokyo knew about the inventions because it licensed the patents until the end of 2010.
