Patrick J. Conroy — Patent Litigation Practice Summary
Specialty / focus areas. Conroy is a Dallas-based IP trial lawyer whose patent docket skews toward electronics and software. Verified matters involve display-panel hardware (LCD/array-substrate and backlight structures in the Bishop Display Tech campaigns against BOE, LG Electronics, Innolux, Heesung and HKC), mobile-device authentication/secure-pairing and voice/media software (MyPort v. Samsung), autonomous-vehicle perception software (Perceptive Automata v. Tesla), wireless networking (Peninsula Technologies v. DISH Wireless), and semiconductor/GPU technology (Arlington Technologies v. NVIDIA). His firm bio also lists antitrust, complex commercial, class action and ITC work, and he is a member of the ITC Trial Lawyers Association.
Side preference. The structured data shows a single tracked appearance, on the defendant side as counsel, in BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd. v. Bishop Display Tech LLC — the PTAB caption for BOE's IPR against Bishop Display, in which Bishop Display is the patent owner/respondent (parallel to Bishop Display Tech LLC v. BOE Tech. Grp. Co., No. 2:25-cv-00310, E.D. Tex.). His broader public record, however, runs mostly on the patent-owner/plaintiff side: docket filings and powers of attorney show him as lead or appearing counsel for asserting entities including Bishop Display Tech, MyPort, Perceptive Automata, Arlington Technologies, Peninsula Technologies and Palisade Technologies. He has also appeared for an operating company in Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. v. Polaris Innovations Ltd., so the practice is not strictly one-sided. Note the tension between the defendant-side label in the tracked data and the plaintiff-side posture reflected in the public docket.
Firm context. He is a shareholder/principal at Nelson Bumgardner Conroy PC (Dallas; roughly 16–18 lawyers), which he joined in 2021 from Bragalone Conroy PC, per Patexia's 2021 lateral-move analysis (59 patent cases at the time of the move). Earlier in his career he was at McKool Smith in Dallas and at Shore Chan Bragalone, and he began as a judicial law clerk to the Hon. Robert L. Jones, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge, N.D. Tex.
Notable matters, PTAB, and credentials. Verifiable results include MyPort, Inc. v. Samsung Elecs. (E.D. Tex., Judge Gilstrap), where Samsung's enforceability summary judgment over a terminal-disclaimer breach was denied in August 2023 and the case later ended in a with-prejudice dismissal following a reported settlement in principle (Jan. 2024); Bishop Display Tech LLC v. LG Electronics (stay on notice of settlement, Oct. 2024; dismissal without prejudice, Apr. 2025); Arlington Technologies LLC v. NVIDIA (W.D. Tex., dismissed with prejudice, 2026); and Peninsula Technologies, LLC v. DISH Wireless (dismissed without prejudice, Oct. 2025). He does appear in PTAB proceedings, on patent-owner-side teams in IPRs brought by Samsung against Bishop Display (IPR2022-00501) and MyPort (IPR2023-00023), typically as back-up counsel on a pro hac vice basis rather than as lead. Admitted in Texas (1999); U.S. Supreme Court; Federal, Second and Fifth Circuits; multiple district courts including E.D./N.D./S.D./W.D. Tex. and S.D.N.Y. J.D., SMU Dedman School of Law (1999); B.A., Xavier University (1995).
Sourcing note: the profile is based on the supplied case list, firm and bar profile pages, PACER-based docket aggregators, PTAB filings, Law360 and Patexia. Because "Patrick Conroy" is a common name, this summary is limited to the Dallas patent litigator identified as Patrick J. Conroy, Texas Bar No. 24012448; no trial verdicts or Federal Circuit arguments attributable to him were independently confirmed.
