On June 28, 2019, Unified, represented by White & Case, filed a petition for inter partes review (IPR) against US Patent 8,863,219, owned by Contemporary Display, LLC, an IP Valuation Partners entity and well-known NPE. The ‘219 patent, directed to the well-known method of a television and its on-screen display menu, has been asserted against various television manufacturers and service providers including LG, Verizon, and Cox.

In addition, Unified is offering $4,000 in cash prizes for the best prior art submissions for three of Contemporary Display’s other patents, all generally directed toward similar TV guide systems.
