The High court of Delhi granted a temporary ex parte injunction in favor of Ericsson in a case involving FRAND-encumbered telephony SEPs. According to the court’s order, Ericsson had offered to license its SEPs to Xiaomi before Xiaomi launched its infringing devices in India. Published reports indicate that Xiaomi failed to respond in any way to six separate Ericsson requests to negotiate, and thus was not a willing licensee.
