GERS Receives Contingency Offer To Restart Litigation Against Ethanol Industry...
This includes BG's unlicensed use of GERS' oil extraction technology.
CleanTech subsequently received an opinion of counsel that its remaining seven of twelve corn oil extraction patents are clearly valid and enforceable, along with a contingency-based offer to restart the infringement litigation from scratch. We are evaluating our rights and remedies in connection with all applicable matters, and we are unable to characterize or evaluate the probability of any outcome at this time
Further, in connection with ongoing patent filings, the USPTO allowed CleanTechβs new corn oil extraction patents after considering the very information that the District Court found to have been withheld, and upon which the bulk of the District Courtβs rulings were based. All of the information alleged to have been βknowingly withheldβ from the USPTO in connection with the patents in suit was provided to and considered by the USPTO prior to issuance of several additional patents that are not covered by the District Courtβs prior rulings (the βNew Patentsβ). The USPTO subsequently disagreed that deception of any kind occurred when, on February 21, 2020, it issued another patent to us after reviewing the very evidence that was allegedly βwithheld,β along with everything the defendants ever submitted and claimed, as well as the District Courtβs 2014 and 2016 rulings β all in light of the facts that were never presented to a jury. Significantly, the new patent was allowed by the same examiner that the District Court said was deceived. In other words, the same patent examiner that was allegedly deceived looked at the purported evidence and claims of deception, and disagreed that she had ever been deceived. Thus, in issuing that patent, the examiner concluded that the inventive process was not βready for patentingβ in July 2003, that an invalidating βoffer for saleβ did not occur in July 2003, and that the βready for patentingβ and βoffer for saleβ information that the District Court determined to have been βdeliberately withheldβ from the USPTO was immaterial to patentability.

The mystery former BG executive at Brazil rice bran oil plant
The plant is owned by RIBT -51% and 49% by Alothon. RIBT hired him last Spring, a little job for such a big man, unless BG has plans to get into to RBO business.
From BG's last CC, Soren said, ""So you will see activities in Brazil that will cement our position and our strong position there."
From the RIBT hiring PR, showing you the over qualified Amlmeida.
SCOTTSDALE, AZ--(Marketwired - Apr 17, 2013) - RiceBran Technologies (OTCQB: RIBT), a global leader in the production and marketing of value added products derived from sustainable rice bran welcomes Mr. João Eduardo Luz de Almeida as President of Irgovel, its rice bran bio-refining subsidiary located in Pelotas, Brazil.
Mr. Almeida brings nearly 30 years experience in agribusiness and food ingredients, having spent the past 24 years in senior positions at Bunge, a leading global agribusiness and food company.
In his most recent position as Director of Special Projects he oversaw the launch of a new biodiesel business in Brazil. In his previous positions at Bunge, Brazil he served as Director of Ingredients, Director of Agrisolutions, and Business Relations Manager.
Mr. Luz de Almeida was also Global Director of Food Products at Bunge's headquarters in White Plains, New York where he was responsible for developing strategies for all food businesses for Bunge. In addition, during his career at Bunge he worked on the acquisition and integration of edible oil businesses in India and Russia.
"We are excited to have João Eduardo join our team as President of Irgovel," commented Mr. W. John Short, CEO & President of RiceBran Technologies. "His proven leadership skills, extensive industry and market knowledge, and his hands-on experience in soybean oil and soy protein manufacturing, coupled with his intimate knowledge of wholesale and retail markets for animal nutrition, human food ingredient and retail sales of edible oil, will build on our solid foundation in agribusiness and food ingredients to help fully develop Irgovel's potential."
Mr. Luz de Almeida received his B.A. in Chemical Engineering and a Post Graduate Degree in Marketing from Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. He also earned an MBA at Fundação Dom Cabral, Brazil and attended the Advanced Management Program at Harvard University.
The catalyst might be the completion of the Brazil plant expansion and updaters, due the end of January. With all the anti GMO and the allergic reaction of Soy as well, rice bran oil would be a great addition of BG's portfolio of products.
I'd certainly be a buyer of RIBT as well, a 6 cent stock. Brazil expansion will bring on 50% more product at higher margins and less overhead.

GS Cleantech Corp. v. Western New York Energy, LLC
GS Cleantech recently filed another lawsuit, this one against Western New York Energy in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York on July 12, 2013.
The asserted patents are U.S. Patent Nos. 7,601,858, 8,008,516, and 8,283,484, each entitled βMethod of processing ethanol byproducts and related subsystems,β and U.S. Patent No. 8,008,517, entitled βMethod of recovering oil from thin stillage.β The patents relate to methods of recovering oil from byproducts of ethanol production using the process of dry milling, which creates a waste stream comprised of byproducts called whole stillage.
According to the complaint, Western New York uses infringing processes performed by ethanol production plants purchased from a plant designer called ICM. ICM was involved in prior litigation with GS.
GS has been on an aggressive patent enforcement campaign over the last several years. The multiple cases were consolidated in the Southern District of Indiana, where the asserted patents were construed and re-construed.

Bunge Leads Agribusiness Breakout
Written by Brad Zigler
From Hard Assets Investor (excerpt):
"Thursday's equity market rally provided confirmation of the commodity stock breakout discussed in yesterday's Desktop piece "The MOOve Toward Commodity Stocks". (link: http://www.hardassetsinvestor.com/component/content/article/3/1521-the-moove-towards-commodity-stocks.html?Itemid=39)
The Market Vectors Agribusiness ETF (NYSE Arca: MOO) gained 22 cents to close at $30.95, while the GreenHaven Continuous Commodity Index ETF (NYSE Arca: GCC) finished at $22.20, a loss of 29 cents. The disparate closes ratcheted the MOO/GCC ratio to a new year-to-date high of 1.39.
One of the stocks leading the agribusiness sector higher was giant Bunge Ltd. (NYSE: BG), a New York-based outfit that makes up 3.9% of the Market Vectors portfolio. Thursday, Bunge climbed $1.71, or 3.1%, higher to finish at $57.63."
