Covert intelligence company Datong broke cover on Wednesday to announce that a patent infringement claim brought against it had been thrown out by the Court of Appeal.

MMI Research had maintained that a third party product sold by Datong infringed the UK element of a patent jointly owned by MMI. Datong had made a provision of £0.3m to cover costs of litigation, including any potential compensation it might be required to pay, but now expects the costs associated with the court case will be substantially lower than £0.3m.
