AAPL Apple Inc

By Bowdeya Tweh

Apple Inc. dodged a potential Supreme Court review Monday of a ruling that it didn't need to pay hundreds of millions of dollars in damages to the University of Wisconsin's licensing arm over alleged patent infringement.

An appellate court last year overturned a 2015 ruling that Apple's devices infringed on a Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation patent regarding the computer processors in smartphones and other devices.

The university sued Intel Corp. in 2008 for infringing on the patent, though, the parties later settled the matter in 2009.
