With this ruling, all of the litigation claims Belgravia asserted in September 2021 have been resolved in PolyNatura’s favor. As contemplated by the parties’ contract, PolyNatura will now apply, as the prevailing party, to recover its attorneys’ fees and court costs.

Peter Yu, Chairman of PolyNatura, commented: “PolyNatura has and continues to be focused on maximizing value for all stakeholders—including our royalty holders, of which Belgravia is one. In this tortuous litigation and its offshoots, Belgravia retained ten law firms, at least two of which Belgravia has pursued for malpractice. These claims, now definitively dismissed in full, were a terrible waste of time, money, and attention for which our recovery of attorneys’ fees can only partially compensate. Moving forward, we reaffirm our efforts to develop PolyNatura’s resources, which will ultimately benefit Belgravia as well.”
