Glaston Group has taken legal measures against North Glass and the competent Court has registered the case. In November 2010, the federal Court in Ottawa, ON, Canada, issued judgement in Glaston's favour on the infringement of Glaston's two patents for its unique tempering and bending technology. The Court ordered that a declaration is made against Shanghai North Glass for infringement of Glaston's 1,308,257 patent and 2,146,628 patent. A similar judgement was issued int he UK in 2006. During the last 2 years, Glaston has several times been disclosing similar patent infringements of North Glass and the violation of North Glass' disclosure obligation related to its IPO. Currently, Glaston is also in the process of initiating legal action in Europe as the company has reason to believe that the EU patents: EP0261,611 and EPO679,613, owned by the company, are infringed by North Glass.
