严正声明：关于加拿大LMI公司误导性胜诉声明的回应

2025年7月1日，中国，深圳

法律事实不容混淆，一审上诉未决不等于终审胜诉

我司关注到加拿大LMI Technologies Inc.（以下简称“LMI公司”）于近日在其微信公众号及其他公开渠道发布的所谓“赢得一场专利诉讼”的声明。该声明刻意隐晦案件仍处上诉审理阶段、一审判决未生效的关键事实，通过模糊表述误导公众及行业合作伙伴，已严重侵害我司商誉并干扰正常经营。现严正声明如下：  

一、案件真实状态：一审未生效，法律程序尚未终结  

1. 本案仍处上诉审理阶段

LMI公司提及的专利诉讼（案涉专利号ZL200780038629.3）虽经一审法院做出判决，但我司已于法定期限内向上一级法院正式提起上诉。根据《中华人民共和国民事诉讼法》第一百七十四条，二审程序尚未终结前，一审判决不具法律效力。  

2. “胜诉”表述严重失实

LMI公司在声明中使用“赢得诉讼”等措辞，刻意忽略“一审”“未生效”等法律状态，违背《最高人民法院关于司法公开的若干规定》中对案件表述需“完整、准确”的要求，已构成虚假宣传及商业诋毁。  

二、LMI声明的不当性质及我司法律行动  

1. 误导性声明的法律定性

该声明违反《反不正当竞争法》第十一条禁止“编造、传播误导性信息损害竞争对手商业信誉”的规定，亦抵触《专利法》倡导的善意行使专利权原则。  

2. 我司已启动法律反制措施

固定证据：对LMI公司发布的声明及造成的市场影响完成全程公证；  

律师函告：要求立即删除误导内容并公开澄清，否则将提起名誉权诉讼及不正当竞争索赔；

上诉推进：二审中重点主张涉案专利无效性及技术不侵权分析，坚决维护合法权益。  

三、海伯森的技术自主性 

1. 涉案产品HPS-LCF1000的独立研发立场

我司重申：涉案产品为HPS-LCF1000型号，该型号产品系基于我司长期自主研发完成，技术方案与LMI专利存在实质性差异。此外，我司拥有数十款高端工业传感器产品，本次诉讼争议不影响其他产品继续合法销售。  

四、严正要求与行业呼吁

1. 要求LMI公司立即纠正

要求其24小时内删除误导性声明，并在原渠道发布澄清公告，明确载明：“案件为一审判决且已被上诉，尚未发生法律效力”。  

2. 呼吁行业良性竞争

专利制度本意为保护创新，而非用作打压对手的工具。我司呼吁同业聚焦技术突破与合作，拒绝利用未生效司法文书扰乱市场秩序。 

法律提示：  

依据《最高人民法院关于适用〈中华人民共和国民事诉讼法〉的解释》第五百五十条，生效裁判需满足“法定上诉期满未上诉”或“最高法院终审裁定”等要件。LMI公司混淆未生效判决与终审结果的行为，已涉嫌构成“诉讼程序中的不诚信诉讼行为”。  

海伯森技术（深圳）有限公司将持续通过法律途径捍卫权益，并一如既往为全球工业客户提供高性能、高可靠性的传感器产品及解决方案。  

特此声明！

OFFICIAL STATEMENT: RESPONSE TO LMI'S MISLEADING CLAIMS OF LEGAL VICTORY

July 1, 2025 - Shenzhen, China

Legal Facts Must Be Clarified: A Pending First-Instance Appeal Does Not Constitute Final Judgment

Hypersen Technologies Co., Ltd. ("Hypersen") has noted the recent statement published by LMI Technologies Inc. ("LMI") on its official WeChat account, falsely claiming to have "won a patent lawsuit." This statement deliberately obscures the critical facts that the case remains under appeal and the first-instance judgment has not taken legal effect. Through such misleading representations, LMI has severely damaged our company's reputation and disrupted normal business operations. We hereby issue this formal statement:

I. ACTUAL STATUS OF THE CASE: FIRST-INSTANCE JUDGMENT NOT FINAL, LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ONGOING

Case Remains Under Appeal

While a first-instance judgment was rendered in the patent litigation referenced by LMI (involving Patent No. ZL200780038629.3), our company has duly filed an appeal with the higher court within the statutory time limit. Pursuant to Article 174 of the Civil Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China, the first-instance judgment shall not take legal effect until the appellate proceedings are concluded.

Misrepresentation of "Legal Victory"

LMI's use of terms such as "won the lawsuit" deliberately omits crucial qualifiers regarding the case's status as "first-instance" and "non-final." This violates the Supreme People's Court's Provisions on Judicial Transparency, which require complete and accurate case disclosures, and constitutes false advertising and commercial defamation.

II. IMPROPER NATURE OF LMI'S STATEMENT AND OUR LEGAL ACTIONS

Legal Characterization of Misleading Statements

LMI's statement violates Article 11 of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law, which prohibits "fabricating or disseminating misleading information to damage a competitor's commercial reputation," and contravenes the principle of good faith in patent enforcement under the Patent Law.

Legal Countermeasures Initiated

Evidence Preservation: Complete notarization of LMI's statement and its market impact.

Legal Notice: Demand for immediate retraction of misleading content and public clarification, with potential defamation and unfair competition claims if unaddressed.

Appeal Strategy: Focusing on patent invalidity arguments and non-infringement analysis in appellate proceedings.

III. Hypersen's INDEPENDENT TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT

Independent R&D of HPS-LCF1000 Product

The HPS-LCF1000 product was developed through our proprietary R&D efforts, with technical solutions fundamentally different from LMI's patent claims. This litigation does not affect the lawful sales of our other high-end industrial sensor products.

IV. FORMAL DEMANDS AND INDUSTRY CALL

Demand for Immediate Rectification

LMI must within 24 hours:

Remove all misleading statements and issue a public clarification stating: "The case is a first-instance judgment currently under appeal and has not taken legal effect.

Advocate for Healthy Industry Competition

The patent system exists to protect innovation, not to suppress competition. We urge industry peers to focus on technological advancement rather than exploiting non-final judgments to disrupt market order.

LEGAL NOTICE:

Per Article 550 of the Supreme People's Court's Interpretation of the Civil Procedure Law, a judgment only becomes effective after either: The appeal period expires without appeal, or A final ruling is issued by the Supreme People's Court.

LMI's misrepresentation of a non-final judgment as conclusive may constitute bad faith litigation conduct.

Hypersen will vigorously defend its rights through all legal avenues while continuing to provide global clients with high-performance, reliable sensor solutions.
