Charles Moore

I'll research this entity before writing.

Now let me verify details about Charles H. Moore's current role and the case context.

Entity note. The tracked party "Charles Moore" is an individual, not a company. Court filings identify him as Charles H. Moore of Sierra City / Sierra County, California — Charles Havice Moore II ("Chuck Moore"), the computer engineer and inventor (born September 9, 1938; MIT physics, 1961). No corporate financials, employee counts, or ticker apply to him personally.

Operations. Moore invented the Forth programming language (1968) and co-founded FORTH, Inc. with Elizabeth Rather in 1971. Since the early 1980s he has designed stack-machine microprocessors — Novix NC4000, Sh-Boom, MuP21, i21, F21 — and was co-founder/CTO of IntellaSys (2005, seaForth-24). In 2009 he co-founded GreenArrays, Inc. near Lake Tahoe, California, where he is chairman/CTO; it sells the GA4 and GA144 multi-core chips and ArrayForth design tools.

Litigation posture. Case data shows 0 plaintiff suits and 1 defendant suit — he is sued, never a plaintiff. The tracked case, Patriot Scientific Corporation v. Technology Properties Ltd. et al. (California federal court; venue not fully confirmed), was Patriot's inventorship/ownership action contending that Russell Fish, not Moore, was sole inventor of U.S. Patent 5,809,336. Moore was also a named defendant alongside Patriot and TPL in consolidated Toshiba declaratory-judgment suits in the Northern District of California (C-05-04838 MHP). He is not a serial litigant and is neither an NPE nor a conventional operating-company target.

Context. Moore is the namesake co-inventor of the Moore Microprocessor Patent (MMP) Portfolio (seven US patents plus European/Japanese counterparts), jointly owned by Patriot Scientific (OTC: PTSC) and the TPL Group and licensed through TPL's Alliacense unit to Intel, AMD, HP, Sony, Toshiba and dozens of others. The 2005 Master Agreement settled the Patriot–Moore–TPL ownership fight; a stipulated judgment declared Moore at least a co-inventor and TPL at least a co-owner. MMP patents were extensively asserted in the Eastern District of Texas. The Federal Circuit's 2006 Patriot Scientific Corp. v. Beatie ruling grew out of counsel disqualification in the inventorship case. In 2010 Moore sued TPL and Alliacense for fraud and breach of fiduciary duty; that matter settled in January 2013.
