In Emergency Services Campaign, First Round Done, Second Round Filed
New Patent Litigation
e-Beacon LLC has fired off separate Eastern District of Texas complaints against NEC (2:24-cv-00891), OnePlus (2:24-cv-00889), Progressive Casualty Insurance (2:24-cv-00892), Samsung (2:24-cv-00890), and Sony (2:24-cv-00893). The round comes after the first in this campaign, filed this past June, hit ADT (since dismissed with prejudice after a noticed settlement) in the Eastern District of Texas; Apple (without prejudice) and Uber (also without prejudice), in the Western District of Texas. Each case ended by the middle of September, in the manner parenthetically suggested. The start to this campaign—which concerns a single patent generally related to transmitting the location of a “VoIP phone” to an emergency services call center—suggests it will be conducted in file-and-dismiss fashion.
