Prism asserted the '288 patent only against RIM and Microsoft. The case settled before Markman, and no claim construction order issued.
Prism asserted the '288 patent only. After two Markman rounds, the court entered final judgment on 2012-12-10 granting summary judgment of non-infringement for McAfee, Symantec, and Trend Micro; Mathworks was dismissed with prejudice, and invalidity counterclaims were dismissed.
The '288 patent was one of three originally asserted patents; Prism withdrew the '288 claims in March 2014, leaving the '345 and '155 patents. The case settled on the last day of trial, and claims were dismissed by order on 2014-12-29.
Prism withdrew the '288 claims in March 2014. A June 2015 jury verdict found infringement of the '345 and '155 patents and awarded $30 million; the Federal Circuit affirmed, but later reversed on § 101, and the Supreme Court denied certiorari on 2019-06-10.
Prism withdrew the '288 claims in March 2014. The jury found non-infringement of the asserted '345 and '155 claims; post-trial motions were denied in 2016. The Federal Circuit reversed the district court's § 101 eligibility ruling and held the claims ineligible, and Prism's appeal was dismissed as moot.
Prism withdrew the '288 claims in March 2014. The action was stayed pending the Sprint and T-Mobile appeals; a 2019 show-cause order indicated the appeals were dispositive and the case should likely be dismissed.
Prism withdrew the '288 claims in March 2014. The case was consolidated for pretrial purposes with the other carrier actions (Nos. 8:12-cv-122 through 8:12-cv-125).
Prism sued U.S. Cellular for patent infringement, and the case was amended to add the '155 patent. The case was stayed pending the Sprint and T-Mobile appeals, then dismissed with prejudice on July 18, 2019, with each party to bear its own costs.
