Three tech-saavy brothers in their parents home created the pop-up and pop-under technology and business model and entered into a contract with the now-well-known X10 wireless company. X10 refused to pay them for it.
“These were young guys who had a dream to start a successful company, but X10 looked at their youth and thought they could wipe them out,” said Michael Fitzgerald, a lawyer for the brothers.
A superior court in Santa Ana has now awarded the brothers $4.3 Million to be payed by X10.
