CQG DOM Free of TT Patent Threat

CQG DOM Free of TT Patent Threat

March 30, 2007

    DENVER and CHICAGO, March 30 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- A
Federal District Court's decision recently dealt another
blow to Trading Technologies' ongoing patent lawsuit
against CQG. In the decision, Judge James Moran adopted
CQG's view of the patents, narrowing the scope of the
protection that TT will enjoy even if the patents are
valid. The Judge emphasized that TT's patents only cover an
interface that includes a price scale where the prices never
automatically move.

    Since the Judge's decision, TT admitted that CQG's
dynamic price ladder does not violate TT's patents thus
removing TT's ability to restrict traders from using CQG's
product. "This is another important step to allow
traders to use tools that will help them be successful
without the threat of litigation," said Josef
Schroeter, president for CQG.

    This case may yet determine TT's patents should never
have been issued by the Patent Office -- that is, TT did
not actually invent anything novel.
