Vehicle Tracking Campaign Hits Verizon Connect

January 8, 2023

Last month, Omega Patents, L.L.C. added a Middle District of Florida case against Verizon (Verizon Connect) (6:22-cv-02371) to its vehicle tracking campaign, alleging infringement of a single patent through the provision of its Hum-branded connected car systems. This suit follows an August 2022 case filed against GeoTab in the District of Delaware and since assigned to Chief Judge Colm F. Connolly, on August 17. Curiously, the parties to that litigation have yet to docket responses to Judge Connolly’s April 2022 standing orders imposing heightened disclosure requirements regarding party ownership and certain third-party litigation funding—even though the latter has a date-specific deadline for doing so and despite the “Series of Extraordinary Events” unfolding before Judge Connolly, raising the profile of those orders throughout this past fall.
