Israeli Manufacturer – Motion to Dismiss Granted in Breach of Contract and Tortious Interference Lawsuits

Herrick achieved a complete victory on behalf of its clients Inokim, an Israeli company that manufactures electric scooters, and Best Buy against certain Inokim shareholders who sued both companies for breaches of a licensing agreement and tortious interference arising from the distribution of Inokim electric scooters. The New York Supreme Court granted motions to dismiss all of the plaintiffs' claims on each of the alternative grounds offered—including improper service, lack of personal jurisdiction over our Israeli clients and lack of standing.
