LOOKING FOR
LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE
Defendants: Sony Interactive
Entertainment LLC, Sony Corporation and law firm Hogan Lovells
US LLP.
The court that
considers the claim: the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.
Civil Action No: 1:17-cv-02501(RDM).
Cause of
action: Unjust enrichment.
Summary of the
cause of action: As a result of conspiracy,
incitements to violate the criminal statute of the United States, bribes,
fraudulent representations, concealment of circumstance relevant to the patent
dispute, corrupt practices, wrongful influence on adjudications rendered by the
Russian Patent and Trademark Office and the Russian courts,
concealment of said criminal wrongdoing, obstruction of criminal investigations
and defrauding the United States committed by the defendants in concert with
their affiliates, the defendants deprived the plaintiff of his
Russian patent on the invention and his right to get compensation for the
patent infringement committed by Sony Group companies. The defendants’
wrongdoing ensured them and their affiliates unjust enrichment at the expense
of the plaintiff. The amount of
compensatory damages suffered by the plaintiff because of said wrongdoing is
equivalent to the patent infringement damages and is equal to $340,000,000. The defendants knowingly
and willfully caused to the plaintiff also
pain and suffering damages. The
defendants’ conduct was outrageous, fraudulent, egregiously insidious and
particularly reprehensible. The plaintiff
believes that the court-appointed punitive damages will deter the
defendants from similar acts in the future.
