This suit is very real. I am one of the co-owners represented by cumberland. A bit of history for you, the co-ownership arose from a tax shelter deal in which the co-owners acquired the rights to their wire-man product. this was done in the fall of 1994 at a time when software deals just started. if you look at some old stmt's you will see a $30 million or so receivable on the books. in 1997 they walked away from wireman and left us hanging. With regards to the numbers, they seem a bit ridiculous, however there are lawyers involved. I believe they they received $250,000 from the proceeds that were supposed to have been in trust. I suspect that nhc will pay something but how much?
