Australian slot machine maker Aristocrat Leisure Ltd. (ALL.AU)
said Tuesday it will "vigorously defend" allegations from
International Game Technology (IGT) that Aristocrat's U.S. unit
infringed certain IGT patents.
In a statement, Sydney-based Aristocrat said it has received
informal notification of the allegations, but is yet to be served
with formal documents detailing IGT's claim.
"This claim appears to be part of an ongoing, broader
intellectual property dispute between Aristocrat and IGT,"
Aristocrat said. "In this broader dispute, Aristocrat as plaintiff,
has taken action against IGT for alleged patent infringement and
there is currently one case before the U.S. District Court for the
Northern District of California and one before the Federal Court of
Australia," the Australian company said.
It said based on the information currently available, it doesn't
expect IGT's proposed action is material.
