ClearOne granted permanent injunction order in intellectual property caseApr 15, 2009 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- Communications solutions provider ClearOne has been granted in its favor two orders, including a permanent injunction order, over the use of infringing computer code and products by Biamp Systems and WideBand Solutions, by a federal court. These orders come in the case which was presented to a jury in October and November 2008. The case is pending in a federal court in Utah initiated by ClearOne against Biamp and a group of defendants consisting of WideBand; three of WideBand's principals including Jun Yang, who was a former ClearOne employee, Andrew Chiang, who was previously affiliated with an entity that sold certain assets to ClearOne, and Lonny Bowers; and Versatile DSP. In November 2008, the jury returned a unanimous verdict in the intellectual property case in favor of ClearOne and against all of the defendants, finding that all of the defendants willfully and maliciously misappropriated ClearOne's trade secrets. http://www.datamonitor.com Republication or redistribution, including by framing or similar means, is expressly prohibited without prior written consent.
