| Veritas Operating Company v. Microsoft Corporation |
 |
Microsoft Corporation
|
 |
 |
 |
| The firm represented Microsoft in a suit brought in the Western District of Washington in which Symantec Corporation (on behalf of Veritas Software Corporation) had alleged billions of dollars of damages. The dispute centered on Microsoft's alleged misuse of Veritas trade secrets, breach of a license agreement, and patent infringement. Microsoft won a complete victory on the patent claims, with the court entering summary judgment in favor of Microsoft and adopting the finding of a Special Master that the patent in suit was invalid and that Microsoft had not infringed. Winston & Strawn was also able to engineer a settlement on the remaining claims at a fraction of the damages sought. |
