September 29, 1997 Following the announcement by Beilstein Informationssysteme GmbH (Frankfurt) on July 25, 1997, on an agreement with VINITI concerning the worldwide marketing of VINITI's structural database covering the period 1989-2000 by Beilstein Informationssysteme GmbH, the InfoChem GmbH (Munich) and its subsidiary InfoChimia GmbH (Berlin) have taken legal action and have officially filed a lawsuit against the Beilstein Informationssysteme GmbH in the courts of Berlin. The legal action is based on several serious infringements of rights held by InfoChem's subsidiary InfoChimia GmbH (Berlin). The court hearing is settled for December 1997. ________________________________________________________________________ Coincidentally, I received this press release after the discussion on ChemReact started on chminf-l.
