This week Microsoft filed a counter suit against Lucent for patent invalidity of Lucent's patent covering technology allegedly used in Microsoft's Xbox.
Microsoft hired the patent litigation law form Fish and Richardson, arguably the best patent litigation law firm in the USA, to represent them. The litigation is taking place in San Diego.
