Posted January 19th, 2021 for SAS WPL still must pay $79 million award to SAS Cary, NC (Jan 19, 2021) The US Supreme Court has left in place an injunction prohibiting World Programming Limited (WPL) from “licensing WPS to any new customer for use within the United States,” thus exhausting WPL’s options. WPL cannot make new US sales and remains responsible for paying a $79 million award to SAS. In April, the Fourth Circuit upheld the injunction, which stems from earlier litigation resulting in an affirmed judgment that WPL committed fraud and breached license agreements in the creation of WPL’s software, WPS. That litigation resulted in a $79 million award to SAS, which WPL has not paid.
