MERCERVILLE, N.J., Sept. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Laser Energetics, Inc. (Pink Sheets: LNGT) today reported that its new Dazer Laser(TM) Light Fighting Technologies has withstood a challenge to its trademark application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office brought by Taser International, Inc. (Taser"). Taser contended that Laser Energetics' application in the USPTO to register its "Dazer Laser" trademark should be rejected because the "Dazer Laser" mark was confusingly similar to Taser's family of "Taser" trademarks. Following a period of pretrial discovery and depositions in the USPTO proceeding, Taser International terminated its opposition with prejudice. The termination with prejudice now precludes Taser from challenging the registration of Laser Energetics' "Dazer Laser" trademark.

Robert D. Battis, CEO and Founder of Laser Energetics, stated, "We have maintained from the beginning of this action that the objections raised by Taser International were without merit. We expect to make a major impact on the law enforcement and military markets with our "Non-Lethal - Less Violent" Dazer Laser(TM) - Light Fighting Technologies, which we believe will replace many of the current Non-Lethal - More Violent close proximity weapons in use today. Having won this battle, we are continuing to move forward expeditiously to bring our products to the marketplace. We expect to be in a position to make some exciting new announcements in the very near future."
