This Friday Apple Inc. filed two lawsuits against Motorola and Motorola Mobility in a US federal court, declaring that Motorolla has violated its patents in several Motorola cell phones, including almost the entire Droid line.
In the October 29 filings Apple states to the US District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin -- first reported by the blog PatentlyApple -- Apple is accusing Motorola of infringing on six patents, three of them focused on touchscreens. All the Motorola's Droid, Droid 2, Droid X, Cliq, Cliq XT, BackFlip, Devour A555, Devour i1, and Charm are included in the products that it claims have infringing technology!
Motorola Mobility had already filed suit against Apple, earlier this month, demanding the US District Court in Delaware to give a declaratory judgment stating that Apple had no rights what so ever to sue it for infringing 12 patents in the first place. Further, it said Apple has emphasized in targeting Android-phone maker HTC. Apple itself is seeking a jury trial and considering compensatory damages as Motorola has also filed two patent infringement lawsuits against Apple charging violations in the iPad, iTouch and iPhone products.
