ITEM 5    OTHER EVENTS

      On  April  27, 2001, 21st Century Technologies, Inc.  ("the
Company")  and  its wholly owned subsidiary Trident Technologies,
Inc.  ("Trident") filed a multi-count lawsuit against Doug Spring
and Buren Palmer, II, in the United States District Court for the
Northern  District  of  Texas, Fort Worth  Division.   The  suit,
pending  in  Cause  No. 401-CV-0338-Y, and  styled  21st  Century
Technologies, Inc. and Trident Technologies, Inc., Plaintiffs  v.
Doug  Spring  and Buren Palmer, II, Defendants seeks to  prohibit
the  Defendants' use of the Plaintiffs' proprietary  information,
including  the  Plaintiffs'  magnetic patch  technology,  further
seeks to require Defendants to transfer all intellectual property
rights  relating  to  the Sea Patch and  Pro  Mag  technology  to
Plaintiffs,  and also seeks the return of any other  property  of
the Plaintiffs that is in the possession of the Defendants.

     The  Complaint  states  that  the  Defendants  entered  into
written  employment contracts with the Company to further develop
and  market technology already under license from the Los  Alamos
National Laboratories, and while acting as employees and officers
of  Trident  (and in the of Defendant Spring as a member  of  the
Board of Directors of the Company) refined the Sea Patch and  Pro
Mag   technology.   The  Complaint  further  alleges   that   the
Defendants  refused  to assign the intellectual  property  rights
related to the Sea Patch and Pro Mag technology to the Plaintiffs
after  being  repeatedly requested to do so, and  instead,  while
employed  as officers of Trident and while Spring was a  director
of  the  Company,  attempted to sell the  technology  and  patent
rights  to  a  third parties without the Company's  knowledge  or
consent.

      The  Complaint  includes  claims for  breach  of  contract,
conversion, misappropriation of trade secrets, claims  under  the
Texas  Theft Liability Act, breach of fiduciary duty,  and  civil
conspiracy.  The complaint seeks, among other things, a temporary
restraining  order  and  subsequent  preliminary  and   permanent
injunctions   against  the  Defendants  prohibiting   them   from
transferring or using the Plaintiffs' proprietary information.

     On  April  30,  2001,  Judge Terry  Means  of  the  Northern
District of Texas entered an Order enjoining the Defendants from,
among  other  things, attempting to transfer or to  disclose  the
Plaintiffs' proprietary information to any person or  entity,  or
transferring,  selling  or  otherwise conveying  the  Plaintiffs'
product  and property.  The Court has set a hearing for  May  14,
2001  to determine whether a temporary injunction will be entered
against the Defendants during the pendancy of the litigation.

      The  Company  has  taken  possession  of  Trident  property
previously  located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and  has  relocated
the Trident sales office to Virginia Beach, Virginia.

      The  Company has previously made available a press  release
announcing  the  filing of the litigation described  herein.    A
true  and  correct of the press release, as well as the Complaint
and Order described herein, are filed as exhibits to this form 8-
K.
