Recently recorded patent assignments made public by the USPTO contain noteworthy transfers to multiple plaintiffs now in litigation, including a new source of patents for Apex Beam Technologies LLC, a new source of patents for Pantech Corporation, and a familiar source of patent rights for Crystal Leap Zrt, this time assigning patents directly, though. Movement can also be seen from troubled patent monetization firm IP Edge LLC, as well as movement from various sources to patent broker Allied Security Trust. Take a look.

In recent months, RPX has flagged various approaches that patent litigants are taking to avoid the heightened corporate and third-party funding disclosure requirements in Chief Judge Colm F. Connolly’s courtroom. As shown by his stay in early August of a case filed by VLSI Technology LLC against Intel, and his more recent stay of an IP Edge LLC case against Amazon, parties attempting to circumvent Judge Connolly’s new standing orders should expect to face consequences.
