In a new Northern District of California complaint, TJTM Technologies LLC has accused Verizon (4:22-cv-02081) of infringing its “Driving Mode” patent through the defendant’s provision of its Message+ mobile app, either “preloaded” onto phones that it sells or available for later download. Again asserted is a single patent that SMTM Technology, LLC assigned to TJTM in May 2021, with SMTM having sued first Microsoft and then Apple before the transfer; TJTM, then hitting Samsung, last July. Northern District of California Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers has conditionally closed the Samsung case in light of the parties’ notice of settlement in principle, filed in January of this year.
