Samsung, ZTE case in UK
In a recently published judgment, Mr Justice Mellor announced his decision which was to list the FRAND trial in the window commencing on 12 January 2026 with a time estimate of 10-15 sitting days.
Samsung has launched 9 sets of proceedings and ZTE have launched 8 sets of proceedings.
Samsung hopes the UK court will determine global FRAND terms, while ZTE wishes the Chongqing court to adjudicate them.
In addition, each side has made offers relating to an interim licence, albeit the sum payable on an interim basis in ZTE’s offer was considerably greater than that offered by Samsung.
