Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson v. Transsion (Preliminary Order)
This case is an infringement action brought by Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson against Shenzhen Transsion Holdings Co. Ltd and other defendants. On 19 March 2026, the Unified Patent Court held a case management hearing where several procedural issues were discussed. Ericsson has accused Transsion and others of infringing on their patents, and similar actions are ongoing in other jurisdictions. The court emphasized the organization of a confidentiality regime as Ericsson’s sensitive information is involved. The possibility of a FRAND defense or a counterclaim from Transsion remains undecided as they are handling multiple worldwide proceedings. The court ordered the case to proceed according to procedural rules and suggested parties agree on a confidentiality regime, with a deadline for Transsion's response by 10 April 2026.
