Foley & Lardner Helps Resolve Patent Dispute on Behalf of Cummins

The Foley IP Litigation team assisted Cummins Inc., a global leader in power solutions, in resolving a patent dispute with JM Turbo Technology Corporation. Cummins and JM Turbo reached a settlement agreement precluding JM Turbo from the manufacture or sale of products that infringe Cummins’ patents.

As part of the settlement agreement, JM Turbo acknowledged it illegally marketed and sold turbochargers protected by Cummins’ patents and other intellectual property rights registered in multiple countries. In addition, Cummins’ patents were infringed, valid and enforceable. Conditions of the settlement include JM Turbo’s agreement to stop all manufacturing, importation, exportation, advertising and/or sale of all infringing products. The settlement also calls for JM Turbo to destroy all existing inventory of the infringing products.

The Foley team was led by partner Phillip M. Goldberg and IP Litigation partner Jeanne M. Gills.
