Microsoft said that a jury in federal court had decided in its favor in a dispute over Motorola Mobility’s licensing of so-called standard, essential patents used in Microsoft products. The jury, in Seattle, agreed with Microsoft’s claim that Motorola, which is owned by Google, broke agreements with standard-setting bodies to license certain patents at a fair and reasonable rate. The company said that the jury awarded it about $14 million in damages, about half what it had sought.
