We don't know the settlement amount, because everything has just automatically been filed under seal for some reason.
You'll recall that Leane filed a request for TRO in Texas, even though Carter lives in NC and UOIP was never domiciled or incorporated in Texas. Attached to that request for TRO was a copy of the ISA between "UnifiedOnline, Inc." and Chanbond, and her request for arbitration. In both, she listed "Unified" conflating the LLC holding Carter's privately held shares with Unified Online, Inc. as a "defendant," and in those filings she was requesting that the contract between "Unified" and Chanbond be rescinded. She had to conflate the two so she could file in Texas because the statute of limitations for breach of contract is 5 years in Texas; in Delaware it's 3 years. Which is why I also believe Carter listed a Dallas address for Unified Online LLC when he incorporated it to hold his shares, rather than using a North Carolina address like his other companies (the two had this planned to begin with). I don't know what she was awarded, but I'm assuming she didn't get the contract rescinded, because now, in North Carolina, she purports to be representing Unified Online, Inc.? She effectively sued Carter, Chanbond (which Carter did not have legal authority to represent - we've determined a majority shareholder does not automatically have exclusive authority of a corporation) and Unified Online, LLC, and won an award, which she is now asking the Delaware Court to confirm against Unified Online, Inc., but at the same time she is claiming she is representing Unified Online, Inc.
I don't know where you're getting your information, but I presume it's from CBV. I wouldn't trust any information from opposing counsel, or from CBV, since Leane and Carter and their lawyers have probably not been completely honest with patent creators. The "truth" is in the filings, many of which are not sealed. Carter and Leane have not exactly been entirely honest here so far, so I am disinclined to believe anything they or their lawyers may have shared with CBV at this point. But you do you.
