Limelight Networks Announces Intent to File Appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States

Business Wire
Limelight Networks (Nasdaq:LLNW), a global leader in digital
content delivery, today announced that it will seek review by the
Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) of the recent decision
by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit to reinstate
the 2008 jury verdict of infringement in its long-standing dispute
with Akamai.
Limelight believes that the recent ruling expands the scope of
liability in a fashion that was neither intended by Congress nor
consistent with prior legal precedent. This is similar to what the
en banc court did in August 2012 when it created an expanded
standard for induced infringement, which was later overturned by
SCOTUS. Limelight has had the support from leaders in the
technology sector before, and expects to have that support again
with this appeal.
“We strongly disagree with the unduly broad standard for direct
infringement created by the August 13, 2015 en banc opinion by the
Federal Circuit,” stated Bob Lento, Limelight’s chief executive
officer. “We are hopeful that the Supreme Court will address this
erroneous decision. As a management team, our confidence in the
underlying value of the business is evident in the equity for
compensation participation by members of our senior leadership
team. As I’ve said before, we will continue to serve our global
customers with the excellence they expect.”
