Ouster continues patent case against Hesai in district court

Ouster (OUST) issued a statement relating to the company’s complaint filed with the U.S International Trade Commission and the investigation into the unfair trade practices of Hesai Group (HSAI) and related entities: “Ouster previously filed its patent infringement case against Hesai in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware in April 2023, but this case was stayed pending the results of a separate ITC investigation filed at the same time. On October 11, the ITC announced that the investigation is terminated to allow for arbitration before any ruling was made on the merits of the patent infringement complaint. As a result, the stay on the infringement case in Delaware will be lifted and the case will recommence. Ouster looks forward to expeditiously addressing the merits of its patent infringement claims in Delaware or through arbitration. The Company will continue to vigorously enforce its patents and seeks to bar all infringing products from the United States in all venues.”
