PORT TOWNSEND — Security technology company Intellicheck Mobilisa of Port Townsend and Eid Passport of Portland, Ore., have settled an antitrust and false advertising lawsuit without exchanging any damages, the companies announced Wednesday.
Eid Passport acted against Intellicheck Mobilisa late last year with a suit that Mobilisa CEO Nelson Ludlow called “frivolous and without merit” at the time.
The two companies, in a joint statement, said Wednesday that neither firm would pay the other, and that Intellicheck Mobilisa will assure Eid Passport with the availability of driver’s license parsing software from Positive Access Corp., now owned by Intellicheck Mobilisa.
Each firm also will pay its own attorney’s fees that stemmed from the lawsuit.
The suit accused Intellicheck Mobilisa of anticompetitive and predatory conduct after Mobilisa acquired Positive Access Corp. on Sept. 1, 2009, and canceled the licensing contract Eid Passport held with Positive Access.
