Judge tosses Guardian's claims against Nintendo

By Lawrence B. Ebert, Esq.

AP notes: An order from U.S. District Court Judge Manuel Real in Los Angeles dismissing Guardian's claims comes less than six months after the lawsuit by Guardian Media Technologies Ltd. was filed.

Bloomberg gave further details:

?Nintendo vigorously defends patent lawsuits,? Rick Flamm, Nintendo of America?s general counsel, said in a statement. ?At the earliest stages of this case, Nintendo convinced the court to dismiss this case as Guardian?s patent had nothing to do with Nintendo?s products.?

The case is Guardian Media Technologies Ltd. v. Coby Electronics Corp., 08cv8439, U.S. District Court, Central District of California (Los Angeles).

Other defendants remain in the case including Amazon.com Inc., Microsoft Corp., Apple Inc., RadioShack Corp. and Wal-Mart Stores Inc.
