A representative for Vivint Smart home called the decision “disappointing.”

Of the $189 million Vivint was ordered to pay in North Carolina, $140 million of that was for punitive damages.

“While we’re thrilled the trial ended in our favor, I want to be clear that this case is not just about CPI’s business,” CPI Security CEO and founder Ken Gill said in a statement. “We believe for at least 15 years, Vivint has been taking advantage of vulnerable people across the country through deceptive, misleading, and flat-out false practices. I hope today’s verdict will stop their deception for good.
