Wirelesswerx IP LLC filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Verizon, asserting US Patent 7,323,982.
Plaintiff
3 cases as plaintiff.
WirelessWerx IP LLC is a Texas-based private company that operates as a non-practicing entity (NPE), also known as a patent assertion entity. Formed on May 27, 2022, it is associated with the Texas patent monetization firm Dynamic IP Deals, LLC (d/b/a DynaIP). Corporate filings list an address in Austin, Texas. As an NPE, WirelessWerx IP does not manufacture products or offer services; its business is centered on monetizing a patent portfolio through litigation and licensing.
The company's patent portfolio was acquired in June 2022 from WirelessWERX International, Inc., a Panamanian entity. The patents generally relate to wireless communication, location tracking, geofencing, and systems for monitoring and controlling movable entities. This technology has been asserted against a wide range of products and services, including connected vehicles, fleet management platforms, mobile apps with location features, and asset-tracking solutions.
Consistent with its status as a patent assertion entity, WirelessWerx IP has a litigation posture of being a plaintiff only. The company initiated its sole litigation campaign in October 2022 and has since filed dozens of infringement lawsuits against a wide array of defendants in the automotive, logistics, and technology sectors. Targets have included Alphabet (Google), Apple, Audi, FedEx, General Motors, Tesla, and Uber. Lawsuits have been filed in various federal district courts, including in the Eastern and Western Districts of Texas.
The tracked case, WirelessWerx IP LLC v. Audi Of America LLC, is an appeal from the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. In March 2026, the district court judge invalidated the asserted patent in that case, U.S. Patent No. 7,323,982, ruling that it was directed to a patent-ineligible abstract idea. Other patents held by WirelessWerx IP have also faced challenges; for instance, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board confirmed the invalidity of all challenged claims in a reexamination of U.S. Patent No. 7,317,927. The patent risk management firm Unified Patents has identified WirelessWerx IP as an NPE and has filed challenges against its patents.
