The legal action was filed on the 28th of May, and alleges that Intel attempted to stop implementors of the Universal Serial Bus (USB) from accepting Multivideo's interconnect product as a standard. Multivideo also alleges that Intel bullied distributors not to use its product. Multivideo Labs, based in Princeton, NJ, is involved in the video display and USB businesses.
