The USITC’s (United States International Trade Commission) decision to deny a reinstatement of a ban on the Apple Watch has turned into a hurdle for Massimo in its long-running blood oxygen patent lawsuit against Apple. In an April 24 filing by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, a complaint against the USITC about a ban has been dealt with.
The filing, detailing a complaint between Masimo and the ITC, as well as U.S. Customs and Border Protection, explains a brief history of the court’s dealings with the ITC. While it doesn’t mention the Apple Watch directly, it’s all about the patent infringement suit with Apple and the implementation and dismissal of a ban.
