Disputes over standards essential patents are
increasingly being exposed in the courts, as can be seen from the CJEU
decisions (such as Huawei v ZTE) and in the UK in relation to the Unwired
Planet litigation1, giving a detailed insight into a wide range of issues
beyond simple infringement and validity. In his discussion of Sony's defeat in
the recently established Beijing IP Court, Toby Mak shows that such cases in
China are no different, with punitive damages and an injunction being granted,
as well as (by Chinese standards) substantive costs.
