InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ:IDCC), a mobile, video and AI technology research and development company, today announced it has been awarded an injunction against Disney (NYSE:DIS) by a court in Germany.

The Munich Regional Court ruled that InterDigital is entitled to an injunction over Disney's infringement of an InterDigital patent which enables a method for dynamically overlaying a first video stream with a second video stream comprising, for example, subtitles. Disney can appeal the decision.

The judgment from the Munich court follows a decision from a court in Brazil, in a parallel litigation, to grant a preliminary injunction in InterDigital's favor, after the court found that Disney infringed both of the InterDigital patents-in-suit.
