The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed a lower court ruling in a patent infringement suit brought by Rembrandt Data Storage against Western Digital (WDC) and Seagate Technology (STX). In its 10-Q filed last month, Western Digital said, "After a favorable claim construction ruling by the court, Western Digital secured a stipulation from [Rembrandt] to dismiss the case. [Rembrandt] has appealed the Court’s claim construction ruling, and the parties await a hearing on the appeal." The asserted patents allegedly relate to specific thin film heads having solenoid coils, according to Western Digital's quarterly filing. Reference Link | |

The Federal Trade Commission approved and issued a modified final decision and order settling charges that Western Digital’s (WDC) proposed acquisition of rival Hitachi Global Technologies would have been anticompetitive in the market for hard disk drives used in desktop PCs. The proposed order settling the FTC’s charges, first announced on March 5, 2012, required Western Digital to sell assets used to manufacture and sell desktop computer hard disk drives to Toshiba (TOSBF) to resolve the agency’s competition concerns. The FTC has approved several modifications to the proposed order to incorporate adjustments that Western Digital and Toshiba Corporation, the buyer of the divested assets, made in the transaction documents. The final order provides for the additional time Western Digital required to complete the divestiture in order to obtain the necessary approvals from other relevant competition authorities and also includes revised production and asset transfer schedules, and extended time in which Western Digital will have access to certain employees. The FTC has also approved changes to the Divestiture Agreement and Contract Manufacturing Agreement to reflect the changes to the remedial agreements made by Western Digital and Toshiba Corporation. | | | 10:55 EDT |  | STX | Seagate falls after Chanos comments at Sohn Conference
