Preliminary Order in Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson v. Transsion and Others

The case involves Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson filing an infringement action against several defendants, collectively referred to as 'Transsion defendants', regarding several patents. A case management hearing took place on March 5, 2026, where the logistics of multiple simultaneous proceedings were discussed, highlighting the defendants' challenges in coordinating worldwide legal actions. Ericsson is seeking a FRAND declaration in the UPC proceedings. Both parties have yet to reach an agreement on a confidentiality regime, and the court invites submissions on the issue before April 10, 2026. No counterclaim has been filed yet, and the Transsion defendants are uncertain about raising a FRAND defense.
