CDEX Response to ASD Lawsuit

excerpts...

CDEX has not infringed and does not infringe any claim of the '369 Patent,
either literally or under the doctrine of equivalents, nor has it
contributed to infringement by others, nor induced others to infringe.

The '369 patent is invalid and void for failing to meet the conditions for
patentabiltity...

The '369 patent is unenforceable as a result of inequitable conduct arising
from Plaintiff's and/or Plaintiff's counsel's intential failure to disclose
relevant prior art that was material to the patentability of the claims of
the '369 patent.

Nevertheless, upon information and belief, Plaintiff intentially failed to
disclose such material prior art to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office
("USPTO"), thereby committing fraud on the USPTO.

Wow - that info sure does make this information about these other entities
at the FDA meetings extremely interesting and on topic.

Resources
In litigation, results matter. When the stakes are high, clients turn to
Hogan & Hartson, where litigation success is a tradition. With more than 350
seasoned litigators in offices worldwide, our diverse practice boasts a
century of achievement in the courtroom, and we are dedicated to
representing client interests vigorously at every stage of a case. Our
lawyers are in court every day, and our hands-on trial experience is
exceptional among global firms. We know the state and federal judges and
court systems, as well as the many other national and international courts
and tribunals in which we regularly appear. The American Lawyer has twice
recognized our litigation department's excellence in its biennial survey of
the best litigation departments among the top 200 U.S. law firms. In 2006 we
were named to the publication's "Distinguished Dozen," and in 2004 were
ranked among the top 15 departments in the country.

As highly skilled trial and appellate attorneys, we regularly try-and
win-the most sophisticated and complex business cases. Our members include
former U.S. attorneys and assistant U.S. attorneys, fellows of the American
College of Trial Lawyers, former law clerks of the U.S. Supreme Court,
courts of appeal, federal district courts and state courts, and numerous
others who have achieved professional distinction in all areas of law and
business. Beyond courtroom skills, many of our lawyers formerly served in
key positions in business and government, bringing with them in-depth
experience and understanding of corporate and governmental issues.

Our clients' business goals are paramount. We consider all the options,
first evaluating whether litigation can be avoided through alternative
measures, and, if not, determining how to handle the resolution of business
disputes in the most effective manner. We are backed by an international
array of capabilities and resources. With over 1,000 attorneys in offices in
the United States, Europe, Latin America, and Asia, we have the ability to
represent clients across borders, industries, and practice areas. We have a
state-of-the-art litigation center to help us better serve our clients, and
our technology infrastructure provides first-rate electronic document
management and allows us to minimize the burden of discovery on our clients.
