Janice, The patent assignment was executed on Jan 1, 2016(prior to the 10-k). That is the focal point. My assumption is that when they acquired the assets in 2013(refer to other assignments here(2013).... https://assignment.uspto.gov/patent/index.html#/patent/search/resultAssignor?assignorName=LAWFUL%20INTERCEPT,%20LLC ...they assumed that they could sell/license the acquired patents. ooopps...after further study and attempts...they realized that they may have made a poor decision. Now they burn cash in an attempt to secure such..form thereof. again...ooops :)
