Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies In conducting its business, the Company may become involved in legal proceedings. The Company will accrue a liability for such matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When only a range of possible loss can be established, the most probable amount in the range is accrued. If no amount within this range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. The accrual for a litigation loss contingency might include, for example, estimates of potential damages, outside legal fees and other directly related costs expected to be incurred. CorProminence d/b/a Core IR v. SCWorx AAA Arbitration Case 01-22-0001-5709 As previously disclosed in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the SEC, on April 25, 2022, the Company received a Demand for Arbitration along with a Statement of Claim filed by Core IR with the American Arbitration Association seeking damages in the amount of approximately $190,000 arising out of a marketing and consulting agreement. The Company filed its answer, affirmative defenses and counterclaims on May 16, 2022. By order of the arbitrator dated November 1, 2022, Core IR received permission to amend its Statement of Claim to increase its request for damages to $257,546. The Company received the final decision of the Arbitrator on October 16, 2023, awarding Core IR $461,856 including unpaid compensation, indemnification for legal fees and costs, prevailing party legal fees and interest (the “Award”). Core IR has since obtained a judgement in the amount of approximately $502,000 (including interest) (“Judgement”) which is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2023. The Company and Core IR entered into a settlement agreement dated July 12, 2024 under which the Company agreed to issue Core IR shares of its common stock with a value of $502,000 (determined based on sales proceeds realized by Core IR), in full and complete satisfaction of the Judgement. On July, 18, 2024, the Company issued the first tranche of common stock under this agreement valued at $218,094. The remaining balance of $283,906 owed under the settlement agreement is included accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2024. Hadrian Equities Partners, LLC et ano. v. SCWorx Corp, Case No. 22-cv-07096 (JLR) (S.D.N.Y) On August 19, 2022, Hadrian Equities Partners, LLC and the Phillip W. Caprio, Jr. 2007 Irrevocable Trust filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging that SCWorx was dilatory and did not comply with its alleged contractual duties to remove the restrictions from Plaintiffs’ converted AMMA stock to SCWorx stock until August 10 and August 11, 2020. Plaintiffs allege that as a result, they were unable to sell their SCWorx stock when SCWorx was trading at its highest price on April 13, 2020. The Complaint sought $500,000 in damages. Plaintiffs filed an Amended Complaint on November 28, 2022. On February 6, 2023, SCWorx filed its answer to the Amended Complaint interposing numerous defenses. Plaintiff has since entered into a settlement agreement dated December 1, 2023 (effective as of October 23, 2023) (as amended April 29, 2024), under which the Company agreed to pay Plaintiffs $20,000 and issue them 37,500 shares of common stock, all in full settlement of the claims made in the lawsuit. The Company has accrued for this liability which is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2023. The cash payment was made in July 2024, and the shares were issued in May 2024. Carole R. Bernstein, Esq. v. SCWorx Corp. As previously disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, on June 7, 2023, Carole R. Bernstein, Esq. filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company. The complaint alleged that the Company breached its engagement agreement with Ms. Bernstein by failing to pay legal fees when due.
