FaceTec Seeks to Disqualify Morrison Foerster in Facial Recognition Patent Case

In a patent infringement dispute involving facial recognition technology, FaceTec Inc. has approached a California federal judge aiming to disqualify Morrison Foerster LLP from representing Jumio Corp.

FaceTec asserts that this prior relationship should prevent Morrison Foerster from stepping in to replace Perkins Coie.
