The suit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and seeks injunctive relief and damages.

We believe that this lawsuit is necessary to protect the significant investments we have made in our pioneering research and technology, which is in the best interest of our stockholders,” said John T. Treace, Chairman, CEO and Founder of Treace. “Enforcing and defending our intellectual property helps to drive our ability to continue to innovate solutions that benefit patients.”

Treace’s patent portfolio includes 80 granted U.S. patents, with an additional 26 granted patents worldwide and over 150 pending patent applications.
