April 06, 2007 (IDG News Service) -- A U.S. District Court judge has barred
voice-over-IP provider Vonage from seeking new customers in a patent
infringement case, according to news reports.
District Judge Claude Hilton two weeks ago agreed to bar the company from
using Internet phone call technology patented by Verizon Communications Inc.
At the time, however, he said he would delay signing the order to give Vonage
time to try to convince him to stay the injunction while it appeals the entire patent infringement case.
