Power Integrations sued System General Corp., of Taipei, Taiwan, in 2004 for using Power Integrations-patented technology in one of its integrated circuits and in an LCD monitor that uses the circuits. The International Trade Commission in June announced Jun 8 it would investigate Power Integrations' claims against System General. If the ITC sees patent violations in the System General products, it could bar them from the U.S. market. Meanwhile, System General challenged the lawsuit alleging that California courts have no jurisdiction. But Power Integrations said Thursday that the court sided with them, which means that if the ITC doesn't take action, power Integrations' suit in state court can proceed.
