David Shaub of Shaub and Williams LLP, Modavox's lead counsel in the case, stated, "The action has been filed after an extended investigation of the claims."

Modavox's Complaint alleges that Modavox has suffered irreparable harm as a result of the alleged infringement and thus seeks preliminary and permanent injunctions against Yahoo! to prevent Yahoo! from making, using, selling and offering for sale any products or services which infringe the '691 or '636 Patents, or otherwise inducing or contributing to the alleged infringement. Modavox's Complaint also seeks monetary damages in an amount to be determined at trial, but in no event less than a reasonable royalty, to compensate Modavox for Yahoo!'s alleged infringement, as well as a finding that Yahoo!'s infringement was willful and deliberate, which finding could entitle Modavox to up to three-times actual damages. The Complaint also seeks attorneys' fees and Court costs, as well as any other remedies that the Court deems equitable and just.
