Nichia Files a Patent Infringement Lawsuit against Feit Electric in the US

On June 13, 2016, Nichia Corporation ("Nichia") filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Feit Electric Company, Inc. (“Feit”) , a US-based LED lighting distributer, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. In this lawsuit, Nichia alleges that Feit has infringed Nichia's U.S. Patent No. 8,530,250. Nichia seeks an injunction directed to the sale and distribution of infringing LED lighting products, such as Feit's “BPOM60/830/LED Bulb.” Nichia also seeks damages for Feit's past infringement.

Nichia seeks to protect its patents and other intellectual property rights and takes actions against alleged infringers in any country where appropriate and necessary.
