Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 7 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES There are no material pending legal proceedings in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or in which any director, officer or affiliate of the Company, any owner of record or beneficially of more than 5% of any class of its voting securities, or security holder is a party adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to the Company other than the following: Sarah Veltz v. Nexalin Technology, Inc. et al. Plaintiff, Sarah Veltz, filed a lawsuit in this matter on January 20, 2021 in Orange County Superior Court (Case No. 30-2021-01180164-CU-WT-CJC) (the “Complaint”) naming the Company and others as defendants. In her Complaint, Plaintiff contends that she was employed by defendants, including Nexalin, and has not been paid all wages, including overtime wages and other benefits allegedly due her. Plaintiff also contends that, during her employment, she was subjected to sexual harassment by the Company’s then Chief Executive Officer. Plaintiff seeks both compensatory and punitive damages. On March 12, 2021, the Company filed its answer to the Complaint. Although the parties are seeking mediation, the court has set a trial in this matter for November 18, 2024, with mediation scheduled for October 10, 2024. Management’s intent is to contest the allegations vigorously and, as of the date of this report, is unable to provide an evaluation of the potential outcome of the litigation within the probable or remote range or to provide an estimate of the amount of or a range of potential loss that might be incurred by the Company. Employment Development Department The Company is currently engaged in settlement discussions with the Employment Development Department (EDD) of the State of California. This matter involves issues related to our previous management’s classification of certain work provided to or on behalf of the Company’s business as contract labor instead of employee labor. The total amount involved was approximately $300,000. Management has petitioned for reassessment and believes the hired workers at issue were indeed actual contractors and not employees. We have no business in California other than one part time and one full time worker residing in California. The EDD approved a significant downward adjustment in our outstanding employment tax liability to approximately $40,000 as reflected on its Statement of Account dated November 30, 2023. We plan to further negotiate with the EDD and proceed with a settlement offer. The Company has accrued $40,000 and $40,000 on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The reduction in the amount accrued was recognized as other income on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company believes it has adequately accrued for this matter. Demand Letter from The University of Arizona On December 8, 2022, the Company received a demand letter from the University of Arizona seeking payment of $111,094. The Company and the University of Arizona agreed on the terms of a settlement for the amounts claimed by the University, whereby the Company paid an aggregate of approximately $69,000 (in three equal monthly payments) in full satisfaction of amounts the University claims it is owed. The settlement amount was paid in full as of December 31, 2023.
