Tallinn, Estonia – ITBS OÜ and Secured3D OÜ announced it has won on all claims brought against them by Jari Kimmo Kristian Isbjörnssund, Fabulonia OÜ and their representative SORAINEN Law Firm in Estonia.

The parties to the civil proceedings in Estonia, case no. 2-13-61048, Fabulonia OÜ and ITBS OÜ have agreed to end the proceedings with Fabulonia OÜ withdrawing all claims now and in the future. This ruling overturns the preliminary injunction granted to Fabulonia OÜ in January 2014. Per the terms of the agreement Fabulonia OÜ, is responsible for compensating procedural expenses to the defendants.

The main points of dispute in the case concerned intellectual property created under a work-for-hire agreement, copyright infringement, unfair competition and disclosure of confidential information. The court asked Fabulonia OU to provide evidence to substantiate their claims and no evidence was presented over the course of litigation. Fabulonia OÜ was forced to withdraw all claims after being unable to furnish any proof to substantiate their allegations in relation to all accusations.

“We are glad this baseless case is over and the lack of evidence clearly demonstrated this was an individual bringing frivolous allegations into our justice system. At the end of the day truth prevailed and we’re happy to move forward from this.” said former ITBS OÜ CEO Taavi Kikas.

The parties agreed to shorten the period for appeal to 2 days and no appeal was filed.  This case is closed.

HP Split – Focusing on Innovation in 3D Printing

HP – the name is synonymous with printing technology, although it’s also become a household name in terms of desktops, laptops and, at least to some extent, tablet computers. However, times are changing and HP has had to change with them. The significantly decreasing market share for desktops and laptops combined with HP’s inability to create a tablet that saw more than lukewarm enthusiasm from consumers has had an enormous impact on its profitability. In a recent press release, the company announced how it would handle that impact. Apparently, it will split itself into two separate firms. Continue reading

Copyright and 3D Printing: Everything Old is New Again

This blog appeared in it’s original form on 3dprintingindustry.com. The author, Charlene Flick, Esq. was kind enough to give us permission to re-host this great piece on 3D Printing Intellectual Property rights and questions. 

From “Player Piano”[1] rolls to “Betamax”[2] to “Napster,”[3] the American Judiciary has hosted a seemingly endless parade of intellectual property disputes over the years all foretelling the end of copyright law as we know it. Petitioners trod out the latest technology, characterizing it as a facilitator of piracy robbing creators of the return on their hard-won investment and inspired contributions that have long fueled the American Economy. [4]  And the technologists respond by asserting that they should not be saddled with the burden of patrolling others’ misuse of their well-intended tools developed to improve the daily lives of everyday Americans.
