US high court won't review Microsoft patent case
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday refused to consider an appeal by Microsoft in a case involving claims by a privately held California software firm and the University of California that Microsoft infringed their patents with its Internet Explorer browser.
Without comment, the high court rejected an appeal by Microsoft that it said involved more than 64 percent of the $521 million patent infringement ruling against the software giant.
The original verdict, delivered in 2003 by an Illinois jury, concluded that parts of Microsoft's Internet Explorer Web browser had infringed on technology developed by Eolas and the University of California.
