Microsoft loses $290 Million to i4i in Damages

Posted on: May 12th, 2010 by Paralegal

Ruling against Microsoft, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on Tuesday confirmed a patent held by Toronto-based i4i.  The tiny Canadian company had taken the software giant to court in 2007 over violations of its patent in Word applications and won the case and got $290 million in damages last December. The U.S. Court of Appeal had upheld a lower court order banning Microsoft from selling its patent-infringing Word processing software from January 11. the patent pertains to use of technology that can open documents using the XML computer programming language.  The Canadian company had said Microsoft stole its technology when it created Word 2003 and 2007. The so called “449 patent” was developed by Michel Vulpe, founder of i4i.
