Empire IP Brings New Round of Complaints in Mobile App Maps Campaign

November 25, 2024

Nearby Systems LLC, a plaintiff associated with Texas monetization firm Empire IP LLC, has added cases against Truist Financial (2:24-cv-00952) and Whataburger (2:24-cv-00954) to the litigation campaign that it launched in June 2022 with suits against CVS, Deli Management, and Rent-A-Center. In the new Eastern District of Texas complaints, the plaintiff asserts three patents generally related to “displaying location-based content on a digital map” on a mobile device. The defendants are accused of infringement through the provision of mobile apps that feature maps for allowing users to locate and navigate to store locations.
