New York: on January 4th 2019, in a Federal Court in
the Southern District of New York reached a verdict in the matter
between KT Group and NCR
Corporation, in regards an agreement to collaborate on a project referred to as
the “London kiosk”, which later became the NCR
Selfserv-90.
At the heart of the breach that NCR inflicted was the use
of KT Group’s 3D CAD detailed
designs.
Once they terminated our partnership, NCR should have
developed its own versions of the 3D CAD detailed designs, but instead
continued to base their future productions on the original KT Group files,
which breached the mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement.
This, however, was much more than just reneging on a
piece of paper; it was also a flagrant disregard by a large corporation to
simply do the right thing and that is also why KT Group’s management decided it had to act in a manner that is a not
normal reflection of our firm, as we prefer to opt for negotiating difficult
situations.
In the end, we had no other choice to but seek justice in
the courts, when all other avenues were exhausted, and the reflection of the
jury’s verdict by KT Group’s management was not one of
exhilaration or pleasure, but more it was a sense of pride in the justice
system and how it upheld KT Group in its accusations, based on the
preponderance of evidence in form of testimonies from both the plaintiff and
defence, as well as hundreds of documents.
All these things assisted the jury in removing any doubt
as to which party had acted in bad faith, which was NCR Corporation.
