check bprg thread . looks like they lost the case . waiting to see what effect this has.

I thought the case wasn't until September?

the ruling is in september , but according to someone on the bprg thread, seo,s case was weak. thats what he said , im waiting for the ruling.

i just couldnt wait for the court case to be settled. there are too many other very good things going for this company and i dont think the ruling whichever way it goes is going to affect the price that much . just to update , big write up shares mag a few weekas ago . tipped as a buy , lots of potential which we all know about . and today it begins.

Grampian Country Food Group to trial Stanelco's Tray-Lidding Technology


Stanelco PLC, the RF (radio frequency) applications group, is pleased to
announce that Grampian Country Food Group (Grampian) has agreed to trial
Stanelco's RF sealing technology for use in tray-lidding machines in its food
packaging operations.

Grampian is one of the UK's largest food companies, (
www.gcfg.com),
and subject
to the success of the trial Grampian will enter into commercial discussions with
Stanelco for the introduction of the technology across the whole Group.

Ian Balchin, CEO, of Stanelco commented:

We are very pleased to be supplying our RF Sealing Technology to Grampian for
this trial. There is considerable excitement across the packaging industry about
the new opportunities that Stanelco's technology is creating. We look forward to
a successful test process and subsequently a long ongoing relationship with
Grampian into the future.


this is what i think will make seo the company it can be . this is the start , next it could be a supermarket .........

nice little mention in the express today about the rise and the deal with grampian . would imagine there will be more of the same in other papers and also in the sundays.

Bosley,

Question is whether to top up now or wait until the court case. Not that is should affect long-term prospects but if they lose no doubt there will be some bailing going on and you'll get more for your dosh.
I think this company is going to be a flyer, working in the packaging industry as I do I can see why the excitement.

Hi Bosley and Andy,
Took your advice - certainly SEO looks good and supported by Shares Mag. Bought some today at 6.5p.

it will be up and down hlyeo but stick with it .

Thanks, Bosley. I will stick with it.

If Grampian sign up they will be the first of many as you can bet the supermarkets will start to take real notice and maybe even specify, also competitord will have to follow suit to realise the packaging cost savings.

Wish the court case with BPRG would hurry up and then this should start trading higher, seems to have a 5.5pish support now.

Court case verdict expected on Friday morning per BPRG interim statement.

10.30 am on Friday to be precise.

i will be happy when this dark cloud has shifted from seo . does seem to be holding it back

Both companies will do well once this court case out of the way, so many other potential profit streams for both, whoever loses will be affected on the day but should soon recover, see it as a buying opportunity. DYOR, I hold BPRG but may hold SEO after announcement...

AdieH

Have the same kind of thoughts as yourself, SEO looks a good buy. Am I right in thinking that the Court Case will probably favour BPRG? Will do SEO more harm than BPRG but probably only in the short term. All will be revealed tomorrow!

PTH

SEO will have more contracts coming in

here it is finally put to bed.

BioProgress Plc

('BioProgress' or the 'Company')

High Court victory for BioProgress in Patent Entitlement case


In a 100 per cent victory in a dispute with Stanelco Fibre Optics Limited,
BioProgress Technology Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of BioProgress plc
(LSE: AIM: BPRG), has been awarded outright ownership of the master patent that
gives it exclusive worldwide rights to the process of making capsules from non-
gelatin materials by means of radio frequency ('RF').


This master patent controls the group of patents that were the subject of this
case and no commercial exploitation of the patented technology is permissible
without the consent of BioProgress.


The Court also found that discussions between BioProgress and Stanelco in the
summer of 1998 were subject to confidentiality. The Judge held that because
Stanelco had misused information given to them in confidence by BioProgress,
Stanelco had breached an obligation of confidence owed, by founding their own
family of patents and patent applications to the technology based on
BioProgress' core inventive concept.


There will now be a further hearing to determine the mechanism of transfer of
ownership of the main patent to BioProgress, together with all other patents and
patent applications worldwide which are derived from the original main patent
filing. In addition, the Court will be asked to assess the damages to be
awarded to BioProgress for Stanelco's misuse of BioProgress' confidential
information.


Graham Hind, CEO of BioProgress, said: 'This judgement validates the position we
have taken during the proceedings. The technology will strengthen significantly
our position in the global encapsulation market and adds significant revenue
earning potential to our SWALLOTM. liquid capsule technologies.


'By combining the intellectual property in this patent with our existing
technologies, BioProgress will now be able to deliver an even more
cost-effective, product enhancing, animal free solution to the encapsulation of
liquids which is a truly large global market.'


- Ends -

at least now its over . i will be buying more at these prices because they wont be down here for too long . i would imagine seo will be making positive announcements soon to counter this . either that or they will let it all settle for a while . either way i can only see positives from now on . anybody got any other opinions?

Can someone please explain what impact this court case could have on SEO - Does the ruling impact the packaging side of things??? - Thanks
