"Sony Prevails in $500M Patent Lawsuit Over PlayStation Controller"

A US District Court judge has ruled in favor of Sony in a $500 million patent infringement lawsuit filed by Genuine Enabling Technology, stating that Sony did not infringe on the company's patented technology with its PlayStation consoles and controllers. The lawsuit claimed that the tech allowing PlayStation devices to communicate infringed on GET's rights, but the judge found that GET failed to provide enough evidence to prove infringement, granting Sony's request for a summary judgement of non-infringement and closing the case.
