Settlement reached in the BSkyB v EDS case

Back in May we reported that the Technology and Construction Court had given a landmark judgement * relating to fraudulent misrepresentations made in pre-contract negotiations  and had awarded BSkyB £200m in interim damages for claims made by its supplier EDS.

In a statement issued last week, Sky said: “On 7 June 2010, EDS and Sky fully and finally settled the litigation between them and all related claims (including for damages, costs and interest) for a total amount of £318 million”. This amount includes the interim payment that EDS have already made.
