Hodges v. MedAssets Net Revenue Systems, LLC, No. 1:07-CV-2985-CC (N.D. Ga.).
License dispute for software company, Represented a software company providing electrical, engineering and automation solutions in the energy, industrial manufacturing and construction industries, related to software license and marketing dispute.
IPCO LLC et al., v. Cellnet Technology Inc. et al., Served as litigation counsel for B&L Tech Company Inc. (B&L), formerly known as StatSignal Systems Inc. (SSI), a mesh wireless networking systems and applications company, in connection with the defense of an alleged breach of "right of first offer" obligation purportedly contained in a series of complex patent licensing agreements. In 2004, SSI's inventor formed a separate patent licensing company, SIPCO LLC (SIPCO), and then asserted patent infringement claims against an affiliate of Landis + Gyr, Inc. (L+G). In 2006, SSI sold all of its assets, including its patent assets, to Hunt Technologies LLC (Hunt), an affiliate of L+G, in a transaction valued at $30 million. SIPCO then sued B&L for breach of an alleged "right of first offer" and pressed the Court to "unwind" B&L's 2006 asset transfer to Hunt. In 2007, the court denied SIPCO's motion for injunctive relief against B&L and Hunt. A substantial damage claim was also asserted against B&L on the contract claims. B&L filed six separate motions for summary judgments. In September 2009, the court issued an order that granted five of B&L's six motions for summary judgment. Plaintiffs' right of first offer claim against B&L and plaintiffs' extraordinarily high damage claim against B&L were fully dismissed from the case.
IPCO, LLC, et al., v. Cellnet Technology, Inc., et al., 660 F. Supp. 2d 1351 (N.D. Ga. 2009).
