Infringement Kimchee

By Gary Odom and Jordan Kuhn

ADVERTISEMENTS

Korea Aerospace University Professor Lee Keung-hae invented software for automatic linguistic switching between Korean and English. Lee lost his initial patent assertion against Microsoft for its Korean version of Word, in 2000. At the time, Lee claimed $42,000 in damages. Following trial, Microsoft countersued Lee in 2001 to invalidate the patent, but the Korean Supreme Court ruled that Lee was holder of a valid patent. As a result, a lower court recently ruled in Lee's favor. Lee is now totting up damages, expected to be at least an order of magnitude greater than those originally sought.
