LONG BEACH, CA (Laserfiche)—September 20, 2011—Compulink Management Center, Inc. dba Laserfiche is pleased to announce that its litigation against SAP America, Inc., SAP AG and SAP Global Marketing over SAP’s use of the company’s Run SmarterĀ® trademark has been resolved.

The terms of the settlement are confidential, but Compulink can disclose that the Parties settled the Action amicably and that the settlement involved a license of Compulink’s trademark for ā€œRun Smarter.ā€

Laserfiche is the owner of United States Trademark and Service Mark Registration No. 3,085,357 for Run SmarterĀ® and is also the owner of registrations for ā€œRun Smarterā€ in other countries. Laserfiche’s complaint against SAP contended that SAP’s use of ā€œRun Smarterā€ infringed Laserfiche’s registered Run SmarterĀ® trademark and service mark and was an unauthorized and unlicensed use.

Laserfiche is a leading provider of enterprise content management (ECM) software. The federally registered Run SmarterĀ® trademark has been the centerpiece of Laserfiche marketing campaigns since 2004. It is a strong trademark and service mark and a valuable asset of Laserfiche.

The lawsuit was filed by Laserfiche in the United States District Court in Los Angeles, CV10-7843-JFW, on October 25, 2010. It was scheduled to go to trial today.
