- BEIJING: Chinese telecom equipment maker Huawei has won a preliminary injunction from a US court barring Motorola from transferring intellectual property in a planned acquisition by Nokia Siemens Networks.
The order by a Chicago federal court Tuesday prohibits Motorola from transferring any Huawei secrets pending resolution of the dispute.
Motorola sells Huawei equipment and the Chinese company says that gave Motorola access to business secrets. Huawei says Motorola’s plan to sell its network equipment business to Nokia Siemens Networks would improperly transfer those secrets to a competitor.
