On October 2, 2017, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) instituted trial on all challenged claims in an IPR filed by Unified against U.S. Patent 7,084,735, owned and asserted by Autoloxer LLC, a subsidiary of IP Edge, a well-known NPE. The '735 Patent, directed to a remote vehicle security system, was previously asserted in district court litigation against various automotive companies such as Ford, OnStar, Hyundai, and John Deere.
