VirnetX Holding Corp.’s $368.2 million jury victory against Apple Inc. over patents for virtual-private-network technology was upheld by a federal judge.
U.S. District Judge Leonard Davis in Tyler, Texas, denied Apple’s requests for a new trial or a reduction in the damage award. VirnetX lost its bid for an order that would have limited Apple’s ability to provide virtual private networks on its products, and the judge ordered the two sides to confer within the next 45 days to work out a license for future royalties.
