Court rules FRAND patent means no injunction

A US judge has ruled against Motorla, which was seeking an injunction to have sales of the Xbox 360 banned.
The trial began two weeks ago in Seattle, but is only the latest battle ground in what has been an international campaign of litigation.

Motorola has launched several suits over Microsoft's alleged infringement of its fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory (FRAND) patent, and has won an injunction in Germany.
Microsoft claims the price tag is too high for the "standards essential" patents.
US District Court Judge Robart ruled against Motorola, saying the company should pursue royalties rather than attempt to ban products outright.
