WASHINGTON, Nov 17 (Reuters) - Eastman Kodak (EK.N) has asked the International Trade Commission to investigate possible patent infringement by Samsung Electronics (005930.KS) and LG Electronics (066570.KS), the commission said on Monday.

Stocks

Kodak accused Samsung, and two of its subsidiaries, and LG Electronics, and two of its subsidiaries, of infringing on patented Kodak technology in mobile telephones and wireless devices, according to a notice on the commission's website.

The ITC is a popular venue for patent infringement lawsuits since it can stop the importation of items made with infringing technology. (Reporting by Diane Bartz)
