Maxell, Ltd.’s active use of the International Trade Commission (ITC) continues, with a new complaint filed against TCL (337-TA-3769) over the provision of smart TVs, including certain TCL 6-Series, 5-Series, 4-Series, 3-Series, S-Class, Q-Class, and QD-Mini LED models. Four video playback patents are asserted, Maxell naming as proposed respondents various TCL subsidiaries. Past ITC actions, e.g., against Apple, Lenovo (Motorola Mobility), and VIZIO, were terminated in light of settlements. Litigation in this campaign is active before the Northern District of California, against LG Electronics (LGE), and before the Eastern District of Texas, against Samsung.
