Qualcomm Moderated Thread - please read rules before posting Message Board - Msg: 34916055

Now the thing that may be confusing folks is that in the Arm v. Qualcomm case where they're ironing out what they want to do with regard to the verdict. Qualcomm is saying that the undecided count needs to be dropped because of ARM's unclean hands. And those unclean hands? It's from ARM's breach of their TLA/ALA with Qualcomm

From my post here:
Qualcomm Moderated Thread - please read rules before posting Message Board - Msg: 35002435

Qualcomm’s Defense of “Unclean Hands”:
  • Qualcomm argues that Arm itself breached the Nuvia ALA and TLA by failing to destroy or return Nuvia’s confidential information after terminating the agreements.
  • Qualcomm showed in the trial Arm used Nuvia’s confidential configuration files to compare with Qualcomm’s designs.
  • Qualcomm presented testimony that Arm employees retained and accessed Nuvia’s confidential information well after the agreement’s termination.
Failure to Destroy Confidential Data:
  • Arm’s engineers admitted they never received instructions to delete Nuvia’s confidential information and continued to access it.
  • Use of Confidential Information in Products: Arm incorporated confidential features requested by Nuvia into its own Coherent Mesh Network (CMN) product, which is now sold to competitors.
  • Financial Gain from Nuvia’s Features: Arm continues to receive royalties from licensing CMN products that include Nuvia’s confidential information.


I think Qualcomm's attorneys rightfully saw the "future use" of this information as being more useful in the more "Lawyer-ey" aspect of the trial (JMOL + Appeals) versus trying to get money out of ARM from the Jury.

Hope that clears it up,
QHT
