Last month, HCL America, a unit of HCL Technologies, filed the case in a court in Texas demanding a jury trial, as it alleged that Atos continues to sell Portal Enable and Web Content Manager, together called DX and Domino software.
“As a result of the defendant’s ongoing violation of plaintiffs’ rights in the infringed software, Plaintiffs are entitled to money damages in an amount to be determined at trial, but in no event less than $132,401,743, plus attorneys’ fees, costs and interest," reads a copy of the complaint.

In December 2018, HCL Technologies paid IBM $1.78 billion to buy eight software products, including IBM Notes, Domino, and Appscan.
