ALPHABET INC-CL A lost its Supreme Court challenge on Monday to a United States patent office policy that insulates older patents from validity reviews. The justices declined to hear Google's appeal regarding a patent dispute with software company VirtaMove. The decision upholds a board policy that has reduced review rates to 37%, upending tech sector litigation strategies.
