Alphabet's Google's (GOOGL) challenge to a US Patent and Trademark Office policy was rejected by the US Supreme Court after the company argued the rule protected older patents from reviews and helped trigger a surge in patent litigation, Reuters reported Monday.
The case stems from VirtaMove's patent infringement accusation against Google. The patent office rejected Google's petition to review the patent in 2025, and a federal appeals court upheld the decision, the report said.
Alphabet didn't immediately reply to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
