An Inter Partes Review (IPR) case filed by Unified Patents against CTEXT IP LLC at the PTAB, which was not instituted due to procedural reasons.
Defendant
1 case as defendant.
CTEXT IP LLC is a privately held entity primarily engaged in patent assertion, operating as a Non-Practicing Entity (NPE). No public information regarding its headquarters, founding year, or operational products and services is available, indicating it does not produce goods or provide services. The "IP LLC" designation in its name, combined with its litigation activity, supports its characterization as a patent monetization firm.
As a patent assertion entity, CTEXT IP LLC generates revenue through the licensing and enforcement of its patent portfolio. It does not appear to have any product lines or service offerings. Its portfolio includes U.S. Patent No. 10,009,304, which has an assignment history involving CTEXT TECHNOLOGY LLC, Adam Moisa, and Allied Security Trust before being assigned to CTEXT IP LLC.
CTEXT IP LLC's patent litigation posture is that of an active patent enforcer. The company has appeared in two tracked cases: one as a plaintiff and one as a defendant. As a plaintiff, CTEXT IP LLC filed an untitled patent infringement lawsuit in the New York Southern District Court, which has been identified as CText IP LLC v. Apple Inc.. As a defendant, CTEXT IP LLC was involved in a proceeding before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) titled Unified Patents v. CTEXT IP LLC.
Notable cases include CText IP LLC v. Apple Inc. in the New York Southern District Court, which centers on allegations of patent infringement related to U.S. Patent No. 10,009,304. This patent has also been the subject of an Inter Partes Review (IPR) challenge filed by Apple Inc. at the PTAB (IPR2025-01113), which was ultimately met with a discretionary denial. The PTAB case listed as Unified Patents v. CTEXT IP LLC further indicates that CTEXT IP LLC's asserted patents are being challenged, consistent with an NPE model where operating companies and anti-NPE organizations seek to invalidate patents.
