Acer Incorporated & Anor v Nokia Technologies OY [2026] EWCA Civ 604 (18 May 2026)
The Court of Appeal held that Nokia’s disputed cross-licence term was not RAND-compliant and the case management stay was conditional on its removal.
The Court of Appeal held that Nokia’s disputed licence term was not RAND and ordered the case management stay only if that term was removed.
The Court of Appeal held Nokia’s adjustable licence offers were capable of acceptance as RAND licences, so the RAND claims had no real prospect of success.
Acer Incorporated & Anor v Nokia Technologies OY [2026] EWCA Civ 564 (12 May 2026)

MediaTek, Inc & Ors v Huawei Technologies Co, Ltd & Anor [2025] EWHC 1689 (Pat) (04 July 2025)
The Patents Court refused Huawei’s renewed stay and reopening applications, granted MediaTek permission to amend, and refused Huawei permission to appeal.
The Secretary of State for Business and Trade v Greensill [2025] EWHC 1380 (Ch) (13 May 2025)
The High Court refused to stay a director disqualification issue pending related Australian proceedings, holding that the overlap did not justify delaying the public interest case.
There was no material change of circumstances to justify a case management stay. The FRAND claims relate to the challenged patent claims under CPR Part 63.14(2), and the court's jurisdiction is properly established. Permission to amend the Particulars of Claim is granted as MediaTek has a real prospect of success. Permission to appeal is refused as none of Huawei's grounds have a real prospect of success.
