Note on entity type: The structured case data lists "Asim Waheed" as the tracked entity, but the record shows this is a natural person, not a company — an individual respondent in Align Technology's ITC actions, identified in ITC filings as "Dr. Asim Waheed c/o ClearCorrect Pakistan." There is therefore no headquarters, ticker, ownership status, employee count, or revenue to report, and no such facts have been verified.
Affiliation. Every tracked case arises from Align Technology's enforcement of a 2006 ITC consent order against OrthoClear and its alleged successors and former personnel. Waheed was named alongside ClearCorrect Operating, LLC (Houston, Texas), ClearCorrect Pakistan (Private), Ltd., Mudassar Rathore, Waqas Wahab, and Nadeem Arif as a party bound by that consent order via the "successor, assign, or agent" and officer/director/employee provisions. ClearCorrect Pakistan generated the digital data sets used to manufacture clear dental aligners sold in the U.S. by ClearCorrect USA; ClearCorrect was acquired by Switzerland's Straumann Group in 2017 for approximately $150 million. I could not verify Waheed's exact role, title, or current affiliation from a primary source.
Products / operations. No operating business is attributed to Waheed in the case record. He is a co-named respondent/intervenor whose alleged connection is to ClearCorrect Pakistan's aligner treatment-planning operations, not to a product or service line of his own.
Litigation posture. Five tracked cases, all as defendant, zero as plaintiff — consistent with an individual respondent hauled into a trade-secret and patent enforcement fight, not with a patent plaintiff or NPE. Venues are the ITC (Inv. No. 337-TA-562 enforcement under 19 C.F.R. § 210.75) and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Nothing in the data shows Eastern District of Texas activity or any patent assertion by Waheed.
Notable cases. Align Technology, Inc. v. ClearCorrect Operating, LLC et al. (ITC enforcement of the 2006 OrthoClear consent order and the related Section 337 enforcement proceeding, both instituted March/May 2012); and the companion appeals Align Technology, Inc. v. International Trade Commission, 771 F.3d 1317 (Fed. Cir. 2014), which addressed whether electronically transmitted digital data sets count as "articles" under Section 337. In April 2015 Align and the ClearCorrect parties, expressly including Waheed, signed a termination agreement resolving the remanded enforcement action, contingent on the separate infringement appeal.
