Note 13. Legal Proceedings
The Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims arising from contracts or other matters from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Management is not aware of any pending or threatened litigation where the ultimate disposition or resolution could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
Cease and Desist Notice
On November 2, 2021, the Company received a cease and desist notice (the “Notice”) from First Genesis, Inc. (“First Genesis”). The Notice alleges, among other things, that Cedric Harris, the Company’s Chief Research Officer, and the Company were using First Genesis’ intellectual property. Mr. Harris, through 832, developed First Genesis’ intellectual property and has been providing First Genesis with consulting services. 832’s intellectual property, which Mr. Harris also developed, is completely different than the First Genesis intellectual property. We believe that the allege claims by First Genesis are without merit and the Company will continue to vigorously defend against the allegations in the Notice. |
