A lawsuit that Penn State brought against Samsung earlier this year has been voluntarily dismissed by both parties, according to court documents filed yesterday.

Penn State filed the suit in a United State Middle District Court in January based on alleged infringement on a university patent for “Organic Light Emitters with Improved Carrier Injection” issued in 2004.

The complaint argues that Samsung and the other defendants in the suit – including Samsung Electronics America, Samsung Telecommunications America and Samsung Display Co. – were violating this patent with the “Galaxy SIII, the Samsung Galaxy S4, and other similar products.”

Samsung denied the allegations that they had infringed on this patent, according to court documents.

Both parties agreed to the dismissal of the suit in a joint stipulation, though the document does not provide details of how this agreement was reached. The suit is dismissed with prejudice, which means it can not be filed again in the future.
