Litigation summary
Past and pending lawsuits — plaintiffs, defendants, jurisdictions, outcomes, and notable rulings.
The initial search on Unified Patents via Google Search did not directly provide the full details (plaintiff, defendant, filing date) for each specific case number in relation to US10917272. The snippets from the Google Search results () mention IPR cases and PTAB decisions related to discretionary denial and "settled expectations" but do not explicitly link specific case numbers from the patent's litigation section to US10917272, except for general discussions about IPRs. The provided patent document lists the case numbers and general status (e.g., "Settlement," "Not Instituted - Procedural"). It also states the assignee as AX Wireless LLC. Typically, the assignee would be the plaintiff in infringement cases and the patent owner in PTAB cases. The defendants/petitioners would be the parties challenging the patent.
Since the direct search for the Unified Patents links did not immediately yield all the requested specific details (especially plaintiff/defendant and filing dates directly tied to US10917272 for each individual case), I will proceed by extracting the information directly stated or strongly implied from the provided patent text's "Family has litigation" section and then try to infer other details where possible, making it clear when information is inferred or not explicitly stated. The user specifically asked me to build on previous sections, and the "Family has litigation" section is part of the provided patent text.
The "Family has litigation" section of the patent US10917272B2 lists the following cases:

The search results for "site:portal.unifiedpatents.com IPR2024-00682 US10917272" and similar IPR cases show general information about PTAB decisions on discretionary denials, including IPR2024-00682 being mentioned as having a "Decision vacating decision on institution and remanding for further proceedings". However, these snippets do not provide the specific plaintiff and defendant names or filing dates directly linked to US10917272.
The patent document itself states "Current Assignee: AX Wireless LLC". It's a common practice that the assignee is the plaintiff in district court cases and the patent owner in PTAB/ITC cases. The Unified Patents links embedded in the patent document confirm the existence of these cases but do not expand on the parties or filing dates within the provided text.
Given the instructions to prefer search results for contradictions but also to build on previously-generated sections and that the patent document itself is the authoritative source, I will rely on the patent document's "Family has litigation" section for the case numbers, jurisdictions, and stated statuses (e.g., "Settlement," "Not Instituted - Procedural"). For the plaintiff/defendant and filing dates not explicitly stated in the patent text or directly found in the specific search for each case number, I will indicate that the information is not explicitly available or inferred.
I will consolidate the information now. I cannot definitively provide the specific plaintiffs and defendants for each district court or ITC case without further specific search results for each individual case that clearly link them to US10917272 and provide the parties. The snippets from the initial search were general discussions of IPR discretion and did not provide these details for the district court or ITC cases. For PTAB cases, "Petitioner" is generally the challenging party, and "Patent Owner" is usually the assignee.
Let me refine the presentation for clarity, stating what is explicitly known from the patent and what is inferred or not readily available from the provided data.
Since the prompt asks for "known litigation involving US patent 10917272" and the provided "Family has litigation" section lists these cases under that specific patent's Google Patents page, it is reasonable to assume these cases involve US10917272.
For the PTAB cases, the patent text indicates a "Petitioner" field but leaves it blank, stating "Petitioner:". This means the specific petitioner is not disclosed in the provided text.Known litigation involving US patent 10917272 includes the following cases:
