Apple's 5g devices iPhone and iPad were banned from selling and importing in Colombia after the court ruled that Apple's products infringed a patent owned by Ericsson. According to Apple insider, juzgado 042 civil del circuito de Bogota, the capital of Colombia, announced in April that Apple's 5g hardware infringed claim 13 of Colombian patent nc2019/0003681. FOSS patents reported that the patent was considered necessary for 5g standard and was granted to Ericsson in 2019. The court said that the patent was valid until December 2037. After the infringement in April, Ericsson issued a security deposit worth $50000 in the following month, and the court ordered a preliminary injunction against Apple Columbia S.A.S., a subsidiary of apple in the country, on July 6. According to the ban, apple is prohibited from importing, selling, advertising or otherwise commercializing any patent infringing product, which means that any iPhone or iPad equipped with 5g will be banned. Apple must also "warn and communicate" with retailers, social media platforms, mass media and other companies to ensure compliance. The court also ordered the Colombian customs authority direcion de impaestos y aduanas Nacionales to prohibit the import of affected hardware. It is reported that apple is appealing the ruling, but judge Ronald Neil Orozco Gomez ruled that Apple cannot seek or enforce the "anti litigation injunction" that can prevent or restrict the implementation of the preliminary injunction from foreign countries, that is, the "anti litigation injunction", which makes it difficult for apple to initiate the anti litigation injunction, because it will violate the court order. Therefore, Apple will instead seek counterclaim damages in the Eastern District of Texas. Apple filed an urgent motion with the court on Friday, asking chief justice Rodney s. Gilstrap to rule that Ericsson must "compensate apple for any fines, fees, fines and costs arising from the Colombian ban". It home learned that the Mannheim District Court in Germany recently ruled that oppo infringed Nokia's 4G / 5G patent and granted Nokia a stop order against oppo, which means that oppo and Yijia devices will be banned in Germany.
