Google Serves BT With Patent Suit In The UK Using Motorola TV Patents

bt-google2Following up from its legal filing yesterday in the U.S., Google has now officially served BT with legal papers for patent infringements in its home market of the UK. While yesterday's suit concerned enterprise services, the UK finding reveals that Google is using Motorola patents to go after BT, claiming it is making infringements in its IPTV services and its set-top boxes. Thus a legal battle between the two companies ratchets up another notch, and now the question is whether the two sides will settle outside of court, or whether BT plans to file a countersuit in the UK. BT already filed one patent suit against Google in December, 2011, which is what spurred Google's actions in the two countries.
