Symantec Corp. said Wednesday it was granted summary judgment in U.S. District Court for Delaware against all patent infringement claims by SRI International Inc. Cupertino-based Symantec said the ruling resolves the dispute prior to trial. The court held that Menlo Park-based SRI's patents were invalid based on prior printed publications authored by SRI employees more than one year before the earliest patent application was filed. Symantec said that in related proceedings, the United States Patent and Trademark Office said it will independently re-examine the patentability of the some SRI patents based on several different prior art publications.
