PETERBOROUGH, N.H. - SoClean has initiated patent infringement litigation against Sunset Healthcare Solutions and its Zoey CPAP sanitizer in the U.S. District Court of Massachusetts. SoClean said in a statement to HME News that, based on a preliminary finding, the court found there is a “substantial likelihood of prevailing on its claim of infringement.” The case is now scheduled to proceed to discovery and trial. Sunset Healthcare Solutions, which launched the Zoey earlier this year, said in an April 17 letter to customers that the court denied SoClean's effort to prevent sales of the Zoey, and that the trial gives it the “first opportunity to present a full response to the allegations,” wrote President and CEO Christopher Slosar. “Sunset intends to vigorously contest the lawsuit and provide evidence that it does not infringe any valid patent asserted by SoClean,” he wrote.
