A U.S. federal jury has ordered GoDaddy to pay 170 million to California-based Express Mobile, finding that the web-hosting giant's website-building tools infringed two of the smaller company's patents.
The verdict, reached in Delaware federal court and made public on Friday, concluded that GoDaddy's online design technology violated patents owned by Express Mobile covering internet and mobile website development.
Express Mobile's attorney, Jay Nuttall, hailed the decision as an outstanding result for our client that confirms the value of its foundational patents.
