In early July 2008, WordLogic Corporation initiated a patent infringement lawsuit against Mercedes-Benz USA over the company’s use of a car navigation system.

WordLogic is seeking back royalties and injunction against Mercedes-Benz’s use of the infringing navigation systems, in addition to triple damages.
