Cypress Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ:CY) today announced that a
patent lawsuit filed against it by Xpoint Technologies, Inc. has
been dismissed with prejudice by the U.S. District Court in
Delaware. The case was Xpoint Technologies Inc. v. Cypress
Semiconductor Corporation et al (Civil Action No. 09-cv-00628-SLR).
Cypress was one of 27 companies named in the suit.
“This is another example of the misuse of our patent and court
systems to intimidate companies into paying simply to avoid
litigation,” said T.J. Rodgers, Cypress’s President and CEO.
“Cypress has never—ever—given in to this type of legal rent
seeking, and we never will. Our record in Federal Court is
excellent and we have no fear of going to trial.”
