Litigation with Former Employees

 

On May 3, 2024, the Company was sued by three former employees over severance payments. On February 14, 2025, the Company filed a cross complaint against the plaintiffs for breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract. In March 2025, the Company settled its lawsuit for $172 thousand. The first payment of $86 thousand was made in March 2025 and the second in May 2025.

 

Litigation with Former Law Firm

 

On March 13, 2025, Moses Singer, LLP, as the claimant, opened an arbitration case with the American Arbitration Association against AppTech for unpaid invoices totaling $416 thousand. The Company has responded to Claimant Moses & Singer’s Arbitration Demand and Statement of Facts on May 1, 2025.
