This challenges a key patent in the victim-offender monitoring space.
Uber Technologies, Inc. v.Envosys, LLC
Uber Technologies filed a petition challenging Envosys's patent claims related to location tracking and dispatch systems. The petitioner asserts that the claims are obvious over various combinations of prior art, including vehicle dispatch and victim-offender tracking technologies. Uber contends these grounds are highly likely to prevail in the PTAB proceedings.
Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd. v.UNM Rainforest Innovations
Panasonic Automotive Systems challenged UNM Rainforest Innovations' patent (8265096) in an IPR, arguing that prior art from IEEE 802.11 standards anticipates or renders the claims obvious. The Board found strong arguments favoring institution based on favorable Fintiv factors.
Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd. v.UNM Rainforest Innovations
The PTAB denied institution of an IPR challenge against UNM Rainforest Innovations' patent 8265096, finding no reasonable likelihood that the petitioner could prove unpatentability. The denial hinged on the Board's rejection of anticipation arguments based on prior art related to wireless data formats.
T-Mobile USA, Inc. et al. v.Wireless Alliance, LLC et al.
Petitioners T-Mobile USA and AT&T Services challenge four claims of the '662 Patent based on obviousness (35 U.S.C. § 103) and priority date rejection (35 U.S.C. § 102). They argue that combining prior art references Lee et al. and Kim et al. renders the claimed carrier aggregation/HARQ methods obvious. The petition also challenges the patent's priority, arguing lack of support for specific limitations.
T-Mobile USA, Inc. et al. v.Wireless Alliance, LLC et al.
T-Mobile and other petitioners successfully petitioned to challenge Wireless Alliance's patent (9144106) regarding carrier management methods.
