Palisade Technologies, LLP has filed its first litigation, suing Micron Technology (7:24-cv-00262) over the provision of solid-state storage devices and memory modules, including LPDDR5 memory integrated circuits (ICs) and solid state drives (SSDs). At issue is the incorporation of 3D NAND, USB-C ports, and voltage regulators. Five patents are asserted in the new Western District of Texas complaint, Palisade having received its patent assets in transfers a few weeks ago from Western Digital and its SanDisk subsidiaries.

Recorded US patent assignments recently made public include several transfers of former operating company patents worth watching, including a transfer of more than 20 US assets into the hands of a newly-formed Delaware entity tied by an experienced monetization team that has run several litigation campaigns with the backing of third-party litigation funding; a transfer from the same source to another Delaware entity of uncertain management but possible connection to a prolific foreign monetization operation; and a transfer between two active NPEs of a couple of wireless communications patents received by one of them from an operating company back in April 2021. Those USPTO records also contain the divestiture of more than two dozen memory patents from an operating company and its acquired subsidiary to a recipient with suggestive ties.
