Defendant
4 cases as defendant.
MYPORT TECHNOLOGIES Inc. is a Non-Practicing Entity (NPE) involved in patent assertion. Its headquarters and founding year are not publicly disclosed through readily verifiable sources. The company does not appear to offer commercial products or services.
MYPORT TECHNOLOGIES Inc. asserts a portfolio of patents, including those related to speech and image recognition for generating and associating tags with digital media, as well as securing digital information through encryption and authentication.
The company's patent litigation posture is primarily that of an asserting entity. While the provided data shows one instance as a plaintiff and five as a defendant, the defendant cases largely consist of challenges to its patents at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). This is a common pattern for NPEs, where accused infringers initiate PTAB proceedings to contest the validity of the asserted patents. The single plaintiff case was filed in the Eastern District of Texas, a venue historically favored by patent plaintiffs. A case against an "Unknown Defendant" is also listed in the Texas Eastern District Court.
Notable cases include Myport Technologies Inc.'s patent infringement suit against Apple Inc., which was filed in the District of Delaware. In this litigation, MyPort asserted patents concerning speech and image recognition and digital information security. However, a Delaware court dismissed MyPort's motion for leave to amend and dismissed its action against Apple with prejudice, ruling that the asserted patents claimed nothing more than abstract ideas. Apple Inc. and Unified Patents have also filed Inter Partes Review (IPR) proceedings against MYPORT TECHNOLOGIES Inc. at the PTAB, challenging the validity of its patents.
Apple Inc. initiated an Inter Partes Review (IPR) proceeding against MYPORT TECHNOLOGIES Inc. regarding US Patent 9832017. The PTAB issued a discretionary denial of institution for this IPR.
Apple Inc. filed an inter partes review (IPR) challenging US Patent 10237067, owned by MYPORT TECHNOLOGIES Inc. The IPR was not instituted due to a procedural discretionary denial.
An unknown petitioner filed an Inter Partes Review (IPR) against MYPORT TECHNOLOGIES Inc. concerning US Patent 9832017. This PTAB proceeding was terminated due to settlement.
Unified Patents, as petitioner, initiated an inter partes review (IPR) against patent owner MYPORT TECHNOLOGIES Inc. concerning US Patent 10237067, which ultimately reached a settlement.
