WSOU “Resets” Again, as Trial in Dell Cases Looms

February 1, 2023

Late last month WSOU Investments, LLC (d/b/a Brazos Licensing and Development) filed another case against Salesforce (6:23-cv-00046), asserting a patent already in suit between the two parties. That patent generally relates to providing “caller flexibility information of a calling terminal” in a network, with infringement allegations in the new Western District of Texas complaint focused on the provision of the Salesforce Service Cloud and Salesforce Sales Cloud platforms. Two days later, WSOU voluntarily dismissed, without prejudice, its prior suit over the patent, which had targeted the provision of the Salesforce Communities tool. Since March 2020, WSOU has been litigating patents received as part of a large portfolio from Nokia (including Alcatel-Lucent) in batches of cases filed separately against Huawei, ZTE, Microsoft, Dell, Alphabet (Google), HP Enterprise (HPE), Juniper Networks, F5 Networks, AMD (Xilinx), NEC, OnePlus, Canon, TP-Link, Arista Networks, Salesforce, Cisco, and NETGEAR—in that order.
