In 2017, DisputeSoft was engaged as a software expert by the defendant in the matter of Securus Technologies, Inc. (“Securus”) v. Global Tel*Link (“GTL”) Corporation, a patent infringement dispute between manufacturers of computerized prison telephone systems.
Each party owned and operated a competing system for managing, processing, and monitoring inmate telephone calls. Plaintiff Securus brought suit against GTL in May 2016, asserting infringement of its patents relating to inmate call management and requesting a permanent injunction against GTL’s use of such technology. GTL brought similar patent infringement counterclaims against Securus.
