Vystar® Reports, Following its First of its Kind Court Victory against EMA Financial, Inc. of $497,439.58 in Legal Fees and Costs Awarded.
Worcester, MA, Dec. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vystar® Corporation (OTCQB: VYST) Vystar® is proud to report; Following its first of its kind court victory on behalf of Vystar Corp. (“Vystar”) against EMA Financial, Inc. (“EMA”), successfully having moving after four years of litigation to have dismissed EMA’s complaint against Vystar seeking damages “in excess of $4,226,187”. Vystar’s attorney, The Law Offices of Barry M. Bordetsky not only prevailed in defeating EMA’s appeal before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit—which sought to reinstate EMA’s breach-of-contract claim—but today secured $497,439.58 in legal fees and costs for Vystar.
Vystar wishes to take a moment to thank all of those involved in the work associated with this litigation. No issuer had previously succeeded in fighting back against EMA Financials’ breach of contract claims on these convertible notes.
Leading this charge for Vystar was its litigation counsel, Barry Bordetsky of The Law Offices of Barry M. Bordetsky. Barry’s work was strategic, methodical, nothing short of a full-fledged fight for Vystar in this David versus Goliath battle. It 's rare to find a litigator so dedicated and talented that is willing to work with a small company, going above and beyond what was required in the fight for Vystar. Without such counsel protecting Vystar, the company very well may have fallen into similar circumstances of other micro-cap issuers sued by EMA Financial - - having judgments issued against them.
We would also like to thank Michael A. Refolo, of Mirick, O’Connell, DeMallie & Lougee, LLP, Vystar’s corporate counsel, and our accountants Janet M. Wornham and Margaret Proulx, CPA’s at Greenberg, Rosenblatt, Kull & Bitsoli, P.C.. for their hard work and efforts. In addition, we are grateful to Daniel R Roche of Marcum LLP who did much of the analysis work needed.
