The United States International Trade Commission (ITC) has recently voiced its opposition to Apple's motion for a stay pending appeal in a case involving smartwatches. This move marks another chapter in the ongoing legal battle between Apple and several companies regarding patent infringement.
The dispute revolves around a complaint filed by the technology company, Advanced Silicon Technologies LLC (AST), which alleges that Apple infringed on its patents related to integrated circuits used in smartwatches. The ITC investigation, which began in 2019, found in favor of AST, prompting Apple to seek a stay on the enforcement of the commission's exclusion order.
