Digital Ally Remains Committed to Holding TASER Accountable for
Infringing Digital Ally's Patented Technology
LENEXA, KS-(Marketwired - Jan 17, 2017) - Digital Ally, Inc.
(NASDAQ: DGLY) (the "Company" or "Digital"), which develops,
manufactures and markets advanced video surveillance products for
law enforcement, homeland security and commercial applications, was
disappointed to learn that the U.S. District Court for the District
of Kansas dismissed its allegations that TASER International, Inc.
has improperly secured contracts with police precincts nationwide
in violation of antitrust and unfair competition statutes. TASER's
conduct has been well documented
(http://www.koat.com/article/apd-taser-deal-to-be-investigated-again/5069855),
and it is unfortunate that the Court will not allow Digital to
address this conduct in its lawsuit. The Company believes that
conduct of this type, along with no-bid contracts, ultimately harms
taxpayers by preventing police precincts from making fully
considered decisions regarding their chosen technology. Digital is
assessing its options regarding the appeal of the dismissed
claims.
The Court's order, however, has no impact on balance of
Digital's claims in the lawsuit that TASER is infringing Digital's
patents directed to an ecosystem for automatically activating law
enforcement recording devices. Digital's pioneering inventions
ensure law enforcement recording devices are on and capturing all
pertinent evidence when officers respond to emergency situations,
even when officers forget to activate the cameras themselves.
Precincts across the country have recognized the ground-breaking
nature of these patents and are demanding this technology. Digital
believes that TASER has grown its own market share on the back of
Digital's innovations because it was unable to develop its own
solution. Digital will continue to aggressively pursue its claims
that TASER has willfully infringed its patents.
