It’s reported that Taiwan-based LED chipmaker Epistar has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against competitor Huga Optotech, seeking NT$200 million.
Epistar filed the lawsuit with Taiwan's intellectual property court, claiming that Huga's blue and green LED products infringe on its patent.
Previously, Epistar has filed patent infringement lawsuits against Epitech Technology and Formosa Epitaxy. Epitech ended up paying royalties to Epistar, while the case against Formosa Epitaxy was withdrawn in August 2008 following an out-of-court settlement.
