TP-Link Brings DJ Action Against VDPP As the NPE Expands Camera Systems Campaign
Ford (2:24-cv-12904) and Subaru (2:24-cv-00909) are the latest defendants to be added to the sole litigation campaign of VDPP LLC, which has seen over 70 defendants sued since its launch in August 2019. The three patents-in-suit, asserted in overlapping sets, are broadly directed to generating and/or displaying a modified video. The defendants are accused of infringement through the provision of their respective backup camera systems. Meanwhile, prior defendant TP-Link has filed a declaratory judgment (DJ) action (8:24-cv-02456) against VDPP, seeking a judgment of noninfringement as to one of those three asserted patents. Despite a recent judgment holding VDPP and its counsel, Ramey LLP, jointly and severally liable for more than $207K in shifted attorney fees, VDPP has once again selected Ramey LLP to represent it in its new affirmative infringement complaints.
