I'd like to thank my great legal teams, led by the brilliant Brian Michalek at Saul Ewing for negotiating a great settlement between my company, Firtiva Corporation and Funimation, a division of Sony, a few days before trial over infringement of our patent. Thanks also to the great attorneys at Ward, Smith & Hill. Specifically, Brian Landry, Joseph Kuo, Lillian Lee at Saul Ewing and Claire Henry and Andrea Fair at Ward Smith.
Days before a trial was set to begin in the Eastern District of Texas, a Sony unit that operates an anime streaming service reached a settlement with a company that accused it of infringing an advertising patent.
