Last month, Bell Northern Research, LLC (BNR), a Hilco Inc. (d/b/a Hilco Global) plaintiff asserting patents received from Broadcom, produced another burst of litigation, filing in the first half of the month a Western District of Texas complaint against NXP Semiconductors (1:23-cv-00633) and a Central District of California complaint against MediaTek and Qualcomm, together with D-Link, Linksys, NETGEAR, TP-Link, and Unizyx (ZyXel) (8:23-cv-01065). In the back half of June, BNR targeted ASUSTek (4:23-cv-00573) with an Eastern District of Texas complaint and then named ASUSTek—together with Laird Connectivity, MediaTek, NXP, and Qualcomm—as proposed respondents in a complaint filed before the International Trade Commission (ITC) (337-TA-3684). In that last complaint, BNR pleads a domestic industry through the activities of its “domestic licensee” Samsung, which allegedly practices the asserted patents in its Galaxy-series smartphones.
