UPDATE 1-Sharp wins U.S. patent fight with Samsung

(Adds detail on four patents, background on suit)

WASHINGTON, June 15 (Reuters) - Japanese electronics maker Sharp Corp (6753.T) has won a fight with South Korea's Samsung Electronics Co (005930.KS) over patented technology for liquid crystal displays, according to an administrative law judge's ruling from the U.S. International Trade Commission.

The entire commission must now rule on the judge's decision, which was issued Friday, but made public on Monday.

The judge found that Samsung infringed all four patents in the case and recommended that the commission issue a limited exclusion order barring the infringing technology from being imported into the United States.

Sharp filed the suit against Samsung with the ITC in March 2008, alleging Samsung infringed four liquid crystal display patents. LCDs are used for television screens and computer monitors.

In another suit, the ITC ruled in January that Sharp infringed two Samsung LCD patents in a suit that Samsung had brought. (Reporting by Diane Bartz; Editing by Andre Grenon)
