On May 1, 2015, AVT, Inc. was informed that a Notice of Entry of Judgment had been filed against the company wherein the company is jointly and severally liable for approximately $2,930,000.  This judgment stems from a lawsuit that management believed was non-material, involving the sale of restaurant assets, which were unrelated to the company’s core business.   The company believes that evidence was insufficient to justify the verdict and damages and will, in consultation with legal counsel, pursue all available avenues to protect company interests.
