CREXi Fights Bid To Disqualify Quinn Emanuel In CoStar IP Suit
By Editorial Team
Commercial real estate platform CREXi is pushing back against CoStar’s attempt to disqualify Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan LLP as its counsel in an intellectual property lawsuit. CoStar has accused CREXi of copyright infringement, prompting a legal battle that now includes a dispute over legal representation.
CREXi has argued before a California federal judge that CoStar’s sudden concerns about a conflict of interest are merely a tactic to gain an advantage in the ongoing legal proceedings. The case, which involves allegations of copyright infringement, has seen both parties engage in legal maneuvers to strengthen their positions.
Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan LLP has been representing CREXi in the lawsuit, and CREXi is adamant about retaining the law firm despite CoStar’s efforts to have them disqualified. The legal wrangling underscores the high stakes involved in intellectual property disputes within the commercial real estate sector.
The case is being closely monitored by legal experts and industry observers as it navigates through the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Both CREXi and CoStar are prominent players in the commercial real estate market, adding further significance to the legal showdown.
