TomTom Secures Another Victory Against Garmin's Patent Portfolio

Amsterdam, 26 April - TomTom Inc today announced that TomTom has secured another victory in its ongoing patent litigation against Garmin. Judge Barbara Crabb granted summary judgment in TomTom's favour on all of the patents that Garmin had asserted against TomTom in the US District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin. After Judge Crabb gave summary judgment in TomTom's favour on December 22, 2006, Garmin asked the court to re-open the case to address additional patent claims. The court decided on 25th April 2007 to re-open the case and then held that each of Garmin's additional claims were either invalid because of prior art or not infringed by TomTom. Accordingly, TomTom has been completely vindicated with respect to the Garmin patents in the Wisconsin case.

Harold Goddijn, CEO of TomTom, said "We are pleased that the Court has resolved in TomTom's favour the additional patent claims raised by Garmin. We continue to hope that Garmin will return to competing in the marketplace instead of wasting resources on litigation."
