The legal battle between Micron and YMTC has taken a new turn: The US chip giant wants to overturn earlier agreements and court rulings, citing national security concerns.
Under those prior rulings, YMTC gained access to 73 pages of Micron's confidential 3D NAND technology documentation, but now Micron wants to reverse that and leave YMTC without such access. While Micron's petition may seem unusual in the digital age, as observed by PatentlyO, there might be a reason behind the move.
