'They're now $7 billion dollars behind in royalties. 'They're trying to destroy our business,' Qualcomm lawyer Evan Chesler said at the hearing in federal court in San Diego. Apple owes $7 billion in royalties to Qualcomm since halting payments because of its ongoing dispute with the mobile chip maker over unfair licensing practices, according to a court hearing on Friday (via Bloomberg).Īpple began withholding the payments through its manufacturers last year, after the tech giant filed a lawsuit against Qualcomm claiming that the chipmaker was charging unfair royalties for 'technologies they have nothing to do with.' However, Qualcomm maintains its technology 'is at the heart of every iPhone,' and that the royalties are entirely valid.
