You realize that lawsuit doesn't mean anything, right? Anyone can have a lawsuit, just look at GBSN, there is like 10 lawsuits going on and most of them are fake LOL. Unless you can provide a valuable source to support your post, it doesn't really mean anything. I can find you tons of links that show how gear Sullivan is and how successful he is. My point here is that you can find anything on the Internet.

Fitbit recently had a lawsuit too and that didn't do anything to them. A lot of companies and CEOs have lawsuits against them, it's just the way this world is, everyone is suing to try to get more money. Instead of trying to find negatives, look into the positives. I assume you're invested here in GDSI, so why not do some good research and look at both sides of things, good and bad? Or are you trying to lower the price and get cheaper shares?

About GDSI's North American Custom Specialty Vehicles
NACSV specializes in building mobile command/communications and specialty vehicles for emergency management, first responders, national security and law enforcement operations.
These specialty vehicles include:

?Mobile Command Center. A properly equipped mobile command center is a response and recovery vehicle that facilitates an agency's ability to expand their command and control capabilities to a remote location. Full interoperable communications are a standard for the mobile command center. For the emergency management agency, the vehicle is an extension of the fixed base emergency operations center. The vehicle should be built with long-term deployment in mind but also be easy to operate in order to allow for quick deployment by minimum personnel if necessary. The successful design of a mobile command center will dictate the frequency of use. In other words, the more difficult to move and operate, the fewer deployments.
?Command and Control: In the law enforcement environment, the vehicle can be utilized for command and control as well as hostage negotiations and even as a mobile precinct. Full law enforcement dispatch capabilities can be installed as well as back-up systems to the 9-1-1 Center.
?Incident Command: The fire service unit, properly equipped, gives the incident commander the visibility and informational flow along with space for ICS functional personnel all in one area. A meeting area for functional ICS officers to share and evaluate information with the IC is necessary.
