Samsung's attempt to transfer a patent infringement lawsuit from the Eastern District of Texas to the Northern District of California was denied by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The case, brought by Mullen Industries against Samsung for alleged patent infringement via its devices, was contested mainly on the basis of Google's influence in California. The court found Samsung's evidence insufficient and noted that key witnesses and operations were present in Texas, leading to a decision that favored maintaining the case in Texas.
Samsung lost its motion to transfer a patent infringement case to the Northern District of California due to insufficient evidence and the presence of key witnesses in Texas.
The district court highlighted that Mullen's suit against Samsung was supported by significant local connections and denied the transfer based on the operational and geographical factors.
