Dillard's wins $246 million in damages vs. JDA, i2

Summary: Retail chain Dillard's won $246 million in damages from i2 Technologies, owned by JDA Software since January, over a supply chain software license spat.

By for Between the Lines |

Retail chain Dillard's won $246 million in damages from i2 Technologies,  owned by JDA Software since January, over a supply chain software license spat.

JDA Software on Wednesday announced the jury verdict in a Texas district court. According to JDA, Dillard’s alleged that i2 had failed to meet obligations for two products that were licensed. Dillard’s paid $8 million for the software.

Hmm. Dillard's paid $8 million and received $246 million in damages ($8 million direct). With ROI like that these big-bang IT projects look much more palatable even when you factor in consulting costs.

JDA Software isn't pleased. The company said the jury awarded $246 million in damages "under various theories." JDA aims to overturn the verdict since Dillard's acquired the i2 software in 2000 and used it for years before filing the lawsuit. In addition, Dillard's is still using the software.

In a statement, JDA said:

JDA is evaluating the outcome and intends to pursue all available paths to overturn the verdict. JDA believes it has several grounds for reversal or significant reduction of the verdict and that a more reasonable resolution will ultimately be reached.

      @Linux Geek it violates the 8th Amendment, <br>the one regarding `Cruel and Unusual Punishment`.

      Please get <a href="http://www.trsohbet.com">sohbet</a>. IE9 is beta, doesn't run on XP and breaks tons of <a href="http://www.trsohbet.com">chat</a> sites. <a href="http://www.forumuz.net/">forum</a> (based on KHTML) had an upward curve until it was able to render most <a href="http://video.trsohbet.com">izlesene</a> sites correctly. With <a href="http://www.trsohbet.com/portal/">portal</a> it only got better and practically they created HTML5.<br><br><a href="http://www.trsohbet.com.tr">mynet sohbet</a> Aceleration. Well that's gonna give <a href="http://www.trsohbet.com.tr">cinsel sohbet</a> a little edge. Why? <a href="http://www.trsohbet.com">chat sohbet</a> and <a href="http://www.trsohbet.com">sohbet odalari</a> are ups for grabs and Chrome can appear on a HA executable and a normal one. Can IE9 do that.... not really...

  • Duh! Sometimes you try to "work" things out FIRST!

    You can only keep getting screwed for so long till you run out of patience. If you promote a product to "help" a business, you had better deliver, otherwise you can be stuck paying for the business' losses. This sounds like Sony not wanting to pay for the actual costs to trouble shoot, find, and remove their root kit.

    This is ludicrous!!!

    Consider where this award was decided - in Texas, an area well known for plaintiff friendly juries.

    In a way, I hope that the award is appealed, and either thrown out, or severely reduced.

    (sarcasm)

    Linux Geek,

    Do you know that the use of M$ software violates the US Constitution???

    YES, it does,

    it violates the 8th Amendment,
    the one regarding `Cruel and Unusual Punishment`

    there, i have said it.

    (/sarcasm)
