Round 1 to Eqtec....28 Jul 2020 13:51
I must say I do think that RNS is such a brilliant rebuttal. Para by para, reading between the lines:
'We have the best quality patent lawyers.
You haven't actually filed the complaint, but lets just illustrate what a mistake that would be. You need to withdraw your complaint immediately.
You now significantly risk compromising any IP around gasification you may claim because if contested it is likely your patents will be proven invalid by your OWN submission of evidence of historically sold gasifiers by Eqtec. You will look incompetent. Any claim this is violating a 'life's work/the little man's toil' is clearly nonsense when the patents were picked up in a bankruptcy fire sale.
We attempted to resolve this amicably but you refused and were duplicitous in the way you behaved (further risking your patents and moral high ground in the case). This really hinges on the fact that you know our tech is better and can't compete.
As above, withdraw this immediately because it will be very costly for you and your company, and rather than allowing both companies to potentially prosper. If not you risk your own company.
We are fully committed to the project because it will greatly benefit the community and do you really want to pick a fight with the state of California as well.
Did we mention we have hot **** lawyers?'
Anyhow, will be interesting to see the response/whether the claim is withdrawn. I suspect it will never be filed and just be gently forgotten.
