US Judge Rules Against German Microsoft Injunction 272
angry tapir writes "In an unusual case, a U.S. judge has ruled that Motorola cannot enforce an injunction that would prevent Microsoft from selling Windows products in Germany, should a German court issue such an injunction next week. Microsoft asked the judge for the ruling in anticipation of an injunction that a German court is expected to issue related to a patent infringement suit that Motorola filed against Microsoft in Germany. The suit centers primarily on Motorola licenses that have been declared essential to the H.264 video standard. The German injunction is expected on April 17."

It's a fact that Germany will never be Germany without the United States of America
Without the United States of America, Germany will be known as "Deutschland"
You certainly don't want that, do you?

Or they can get an injunction granted in Germany preventing the injunction granted in the USA from preventing the injunction granted in Germany.
