Court Ruling on Early Motion
Yesterday, the Court declined to dismiss Sanas’s patent claims at this early stage of litigation.
The Court’s decision found that Sanas’ claim should not be rejected prior to any discovery occurring. The decision simply allows Sanas to proceed into the discovery phase of the case. The Court did not rule on the merits of the claim, which will be reviewed much later in the case after the conclusion of discovery.
The ruling is not a finding that:
- Sanas’s patents are valid
- Sanas’s technology is novel
- Krisp infringed any patents
At this stage, the judge was required by law to assume Sanas’s allegations were true. That standard no longer applies going forward.
What Happens Next
The case now moves into discovery, where allegations give way to actual evidence.
To survive our motion, Sanas was required to commit to a specific factual narrative on the record. That narrative will now be tested through documents, testimony, and expert analysis. We welcome that process.
Our technology, research, and product innovations are the result of years of independent development and the work of world-class scientists and engineers. We are confident in our position and look forward to demonstrating the integrity of our technology and our work.
We’re grateful for the continued support of our customers and partners, and we remain committed to the transparency, reliability, and innovation you expect from us.
If you have any questions, our team is here to help.
