Jury in Virginia Court Finds Against DynCorp International LLC in Civil Suit
Worldwide Network Services LLC Awarded Over $15 Million WASHINGTON--(Business Wire)-- Today an eight-person jury in the Eastern District of Virginia found unanimously in favor of Worldwide Network Services, LLC (WWNS), and against DynCorp International, LLC (NYSE - DCP) on a number of counts, including racial discrimination and breach of contract. The decision came as a result of a civil dispute brought by WWNS, a Washington D.C.-based minority-owned telecommunications service provider. The jury awarded WWNS over $5 million plus interest in compensatory damages, as well as $10 million in punitive damages. WWNS worked as a subcontractor to Dyncorp in Iraq and Afghanistan under the multibillion dollar State Department International Civilian Police training program (CIVPOL), installing telecommunications equipment and network services. WWNS brought the dispute against Dyncorp in October 2006 accusing the large defense contractor of actions designed to force WWNS out of the Iraq and Afghanistan projects.
