Detailed in the suit are seven patents, four of which pertain to systems and equipment for telecommunications control, including how signals are processed through a network, and how user communication is routed into a device. The other three concern the use of broadband in telecommunications systems.
Sprint Nextel Corp. is seeking monetary damages and an injunction to keep Vonage Holdings Corp. and Voiceglo Holdings Inc. from using the technology named in the patents, while the issue of patent rights is being decided. Debra Peterson, Sprint Nextel spokesperson, said that the lawsuit is something of a last resort, since the company has been attempting to resolve the dispute amicably for the past year.
