Accelerated Memory Tech Disclaims Patent, Mooting Challenge
On May 21, 2020, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) ruled it would not institute Unified Patents, LLC v. Accelerated Memory Tech, LLC, IPR2020-00191 given the claims were no longer valid. While technically a denial, it would be more fair to say the issue was moot, given Patent Owner's earlier disclaimer of all the claims. The patent, U.S. Patent 6,513,062, owned by Accelerated Memory Tech, LLC, an IPinvestments Group affiliate and well-known NPE, was also ruled invalid under 101 in January 2020, prior to the statutory disclaimer. All other cases involving this patent have been terminated.
Unified Patents was represented by in-house counsel, Ashraf Fawzy, and by Raghav Bajaj and David McCombs from Haynes and Boone, LLP. To read the decision and view the case record, see Unified's Portal.
