Broadcom Awarded Double Damages and Attorneys' Fees

A U.S. District Court judge ordered QUALCOMM to pay double damages of $39.3 million for past infringement of three Broadcom patents. The judge also ordered Qualcomm to pay Broadcom's attorneys' fees in the litigation. An injunction hearing in the case, in which Broadcom is seeking to bar future infringement of the patents by Qualcomm, is scheduled to begin Tuesday.
