Court date for Picsel founders
Chicago-based attorney Craig Marr told Scotland on Sunday that an international service of process would be issued "within the next seven to ten days".
The federal court of San Francisco has scheduled a case management conference on 4 August for the litigation to proceed against ex-Picsel executives Imran Khand and Masood Jabbar.

Bill Vanke, the former chief operating officer of Picsel Americas, is leading the legal move which centres on problems associated with the firm getting into financial trouble and subsequently emerging as an MBO.
Vanke is joined by several former employees, some who claim they were unpaid for up to a year. They claim Picsel's owners did not include any of the non-UK entities as bankrupt and that creditors, employees and other stakeholders in the business are owed money from those parts of the business.
