Northern California legal powerhouse Farella Braun + Martel secured a complete defense victory for a smart meter technology company following a two-week bench trial in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of California.

In the litigation, a technology licensor asserted claims seeking over a billion dollars in damages. The judge found for Farella’s client on all counts, not only rejecting the licensor’s damage claims but vindicating the client’s rights under its license agreement.

The Farella trial team led by Tony Schoenberg included Daniel Callaway, John Ugai, and Alva Coleman. Over the course of the litigation that preceded the trial, Gary Kaplan, Eugene Mar, and Tim Horgan-Kobelski made significant contributions.
