Defending First International Computer, FIC America, and Everex’s right to import chips and motherboards
Intel Corp.
First International Computer, FIC America, Everex
Finnegan defended First International Computer (FIC), FIC America, and Everex against an ITC case brought by Intel Corporation concerning personal computer motherboard chipsets. Intel argued that four of its Pentium patents covered the interfaces and other aspects of North Bridge and South Bridge chips used in motherboards sold by FIC, FICA, and Everex. After fact discovery and submission of expert reports, Intel withdrew its complaint against all three of our clients.
