Microsoft Sues U.S. Customs Over Motorola Smartphone Ban
Microsoft, which last year won an importation ban on some phones made by Google’s Motorola Mobility division, on Friday sued U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) for failing to follow through on it. In its complaint, Microsoft claims that CBP has “repeatedly ignored its obligation” to enforce the ban, which was issued by the U.S. International Trade Commission last summer and is to remain in place until 2018.
