After Abandoning First Suit, Plaintiff Appears to Hope for a New Beginning in Clipping and Stitching Campaign
August 10, 2024
In May 2023, ART Research and Technology, L.L.C. (d/b/a ANZU) filed its first lawsuit, accusing Meta Platforms (f/k/a Facebook) (Instagram) of infringing a pair of what it now calls “ART Clipping” patents through the provision of the Facebook Reels, Instagram Reels, Facebook Clips, and Facebook Gaming services. The plaintiff “abandoned the filing”, successfully seeking a refund of the associated fee. Now, it has sued Alphabet (Google, YouTube) (3:24-cv-04898) in a second Northern District of California complaint over those same “ART Clipping” patents, as well as over two “ART Stitching” patents.
