In an interesting week of litigation in the UK, several major corporations were at the heart of significant legal battles. Tesla launched patent proceedings against InterDigital, a technology company, in a bid to protect its key innovations.
Another case of note saw members of the iconic band Genesis disputing a breach of contract claim against Virgin Records, alleging that the label’s actions were not completely up to stipulated terms. The exact specifics of the claim are yet to be fully disclosed.
In addition, betting titan Entain found itself embroiled in a claim regarding its acquisition of BetCity last year. As one of the largest players in the betting industry, the outcome of this claim is likely to have repercussions for the sector as a whole.
