Magistrate Judge Issues Report and Recommendation to Award KORU Medical Systems $1.0 Million in Attorneys’ Fees and Costs

CHESTER, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Repro Med Systems, Inc. dba KORU Medical Systems (NASDAQ: KRMD) (“KORU Medical” or the “Company”) today announced that on November 12, 2019 a United States District Court Magistrate Judge for the Southern District of New York issued a Report and Recommendation that KORU Medical’s motion to declare the patent infringement case exceptional and recoup attorneys’ fees and expenses from EMED Technologies (“EMED”) should be granted in the amount of $1,012,527.67. As previously announced, on August 30, 2019 the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York granted KORU Medical’s motion for summary judgement of non-infringement against EMED U.S. Patent 9,808,576 and dismissed the case (1:18-cv-05880-LGS) with prejudice.

The Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge serving in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York is not a final decision and will be reviewed, along with any potential objections raised by EMED, by the District Judge for the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. KORU Medical believes that the District Judge will confirm the Report and Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge, although there can be no assurances as to the outcome or timing.

KORU Medical is also pursuing the recovery of attorneys’ fees and expenses from EMED in a separate case that was, as previously announced, dismissed by the United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Texas on June 28, 2019. There can be no assurances that KORU Medical will be successful in this pursuit.
