Mohawk Gaming Enterprises v. Scientific Games, et al. (AAA/NY State Court): Cohen Milstein represents casinos that purchased/leased an automatic shuffler from Scientific Games, Bally Technologies, and Bally Gaming in a novel, certified class arbitration, alleging that the Respondents control virtually 100% of the relevant card shuffler market and maintain monopoly power through deceptive tactics such as fraudulently procuring patents and then asserting those patents in sham lawsuits against competitors, thereby suppressing competition and deterring entry of new competitors, thereby allowing Respondents to set inflated prices.
