Foreign Infringers
What if only a foreign company is infringing?-- If the foreign company makes and sells abroad a product covered by a US patent, there is no infringement. However, if a foreign company imports its infringing products into t8he U.S., we can pursue them here for patent infringement.
A U.S. patent cannot be infringed solely by acts performed abroad. A foreign company can freely make and sell a product covered by a U.S. patent anywhere outside the U.S. If they import infringing goods into the U.S., they may be sued here.
could you please provide me with caselaw or U.S. code that supports this? Thank you. [email protected]
