    Oracle Wins Summary Judgment In Patent Infringement Suit

    REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. - Oracle Corporation has won summary judgment in a significant patent infringement suit concerning its clustered database software. The ruling ends the proceedings against Oracle but allows Oracle to proceed on its claims that MangoSoft's patent is invalid and unenforceable.

    "The case is an important victory for Oracle," said Oracle spokesperson Deborah Hellinger. "This decision eliminates the threat to continued sales and revenues, and demonstrates the company's resolve to vigorously defend against unfounded claims attacking its products."

    On March 14, 2006, the U.S. District Court in New Hampshire ruled in favor of Oracle on its motion for summary judgment that it did not infringe a patent held by MangoSoft, Inc. MangoSoft, a small software developer with less than $500,000 in revenues for its last fiscal year, had sued Oracle in 2002, claiming infringement of its patent on shared memory technology. It sought an injunction to stop Oracle from further sales of its software and over $500 million in damages.

    Did You Know?

    A patent protects your invention.

    A patent for an invention is a grant of property rights by the U.S. Government through the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The patent grant excludes others from making, using, or selling the invention in the United States. The terms "Patent Pending" and "Patent Applied For" are used to inform the public that an application for a patent has been filed. Patent protection does not start until the actual grant of a patent. Marking of an article as patented, when it is not, is illegal and subject to penalty.
