CHICAGO, March 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Card Activation Technologies, Inc. (OTC:CDVT) (BULLETIN BOARD: CDVT) announces: "The law firm of Orum & Roth LLC is engaged in a campaign to notify potential infringers about Card Activation's patent. Notifying a party about the existence of the patent is the first step in attempting to obtain a license agreement. The firm is also engaged in performing due diligence to determine the method used by each potential infringer and to document that method. The firm then generally engages in communications about the patent either directly with a party or with that party's outside counsel. The goal of the communications is to obtain a voluntary license of the patent. In the event that communications break down between the firm and the accused party, the law firm then generally files an infringement lawsuit against the party in issue," said Mark Roth, patent infringement attorney with Orum & Roth LLC.
