Shelton, CT -- Baldwin Technology Company, Inc. (ASE:BLD) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Baldwin Graphic Systems, Inc. filed a Complaint against Siebert, Inc. in the United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois.

In its complaint, Baldwin alleges that Siebert has infringed one or more claims of three of its U.S. Patents which relate to PREPAC® cleaning rolls used in connection with Baldwin's IMPACT® cleaning systems. The complaint seeks both damages and a preliminary and permanent injunction against Siebert's infringement.

Shaun Kilfoyle, Vice President, responsible for the Company's domestic operations, said: "This lawsuit was brought to enforce our patents on technology valuable to Baldwin and because Siebert continued sales efforts after we sent them notice of our patents. We intend to pursue all our legal remedies under the United States Patent Laws."
