Once again, the U.S. Court of Federal Claims has dismissed a persistent lawsuit lodged against the U.S. Army over allegations of that it infringed on two patents related to armored vehicles.
An essential point of the court’s consideration was recognizing that the Army had an effective license that allowed it to utilize the patented technology. Thus, there was no case of patent infringement. This implication reaffirms the potential advantages of having a robust and comprehensive licensing strategy when dealing with innovations critical to national security.
