The search results provide substantial information regarding litigation involving US Patent 12028793. I will consolidate the information for each case.
District Court Cases:
Telcom Ventures LLC v. [Apple Inc.](/litigations/by-plaintiff/Apple%20Inc.) (Florida Southern District Court & California Northern District Court)
- Plaintiff(s): Telcom Ventures LLC
- Defendant(s): Apple Inc.
- Jurisdiction: Initially filed in Florida Southern District Court, then transferred to California Northern District Court.
- Case Number:
- Florida Southern District Court: 1:24-cv-23837
- California Northern District Court: 5:25-cv-05041
- Filing Date:
- Florida Southern District Court: October 4, 2024
- California Northern District Court: June 13, 2025
- Outcome/Current Status: The case was originally filed in the Southern District of Florida on October 4, 2024, and was transferred to the Northern District of California on June 13, 2025. The Florida case (1:24-cv-23837) has been terminated and closed due to the transfer. The case in the Northern District of California (5:25-cv-05041) is currently open and active. Telcom Ventures LLC alleges Apple infringes eight patents (including US12028793B2) through Apple Pay, specifically targeting mobile payments via biometric authentication and near-field communication (NFC).
Telcom Ventures LLC v. Samsung (Eastern District of Texas)
- Plaintiff(s): Telcom Ventures LLC
- Defendant(s): Samsung (specifically [[Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.](/litigations/by-plaintiff/Samsung%20Electronics%20Co.%2C%20Ltd.) et al.](/litigations/by-plaintiff/Samsung%20Electronics%20Co.%2C%20Ltd.%20et%20al.))
- Jurisdiction: Eastern District of Texas
- Case Number: 2:24-cv-00691
- Filing Date: August 21, 2024
- Outcome/Current Status: Telcom Ventures LLC accused Samsung of infringing eight patents (including US12028793B2) through the provision of Samsung Pay. The deadline for Samsung's response was extended to December 8, 2024. This case is still listed as "Critical" litigation in the initial patent info. Self-correction: The initial search result and for case number 2:24-cv-00691 in Texas Eastern District Court seems to be conflated with other unrelated cases regarding the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, and also with a case in Pennsylvania Western District Court. However, clearly states "Telcom Ventures LLC v. Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. et al., Case No. 2:24- cv-00691-JRG (E.D. Tex., filed August 21, 2024)." This confirms the case number and jurisdiction for the Samsung litigation.
PTAB Cases:
It appears that the patent family is involved in PTAB cases, and some of the searches provided details about other patents in the family or other IPRs filed by Samsung. I need to be careful to only list IPRs specifically for US12028793 if possible, or clarify if they are for related patents in the family. Based on the initial prompt, I am looking for US12028793, but the output sometimes refers to IPRs related to a different patent number, for example, 9,462,411. However, the initial patent overview clearly listed IPRs for this patent number (12028793) as IPR2025-01401, IPR2025-01239, and IPR2025-00978.
IPR2025-01401
- Plaintiff(s) (Petitioner): Not explicitly stated in the provided snippets.
- Defendant(s) (Patent Owner): Not explicitly stated in the provided snippets. (Likely Telcom Ventures LLC as patent owner).
- Jurisdiction: Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB)
- Case Number: IPR2025-01401
- Filing Date: Not explicitly stated in the provided snippets.
- Outcome/Current Status: Not Instituted - Procedural (from initial patent info).
IPR2025-01239
- Plaintiff(s) (Petitioner): Not explicitly stated in the provided snippets.
- Defendant(s) (Patent Owner): Not explicitly stated in the provided snippets. (Likely Telcom Ventures LLC as patent owner).
- Jurisdiction: Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB)
- Case Number: IPR2025-01239
- Filing Date: Not explicitly stated in the provided snippets.
- Outcome/Current Status: Procedural Termination (from initial patent info).
IPR2025-00978
- Plaintiff(s) (Petitioner): Samsung Electronics America Inc and Samsung Electronics Co Ltd
- Defendant(s) (Patent Owner): Telcom Ventures LLC
- Jurisdiction: Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB)
- Case Number: IPR2025-00978

- Outcome/Current Status: Not Instituted - Procedural.
The Darts-ip link was generic to the family and did not provide specific US litigation details beyond what Unified Patents already indicated.
One of the search results for "5:25-cv-05041" mentions: "Petitioner subsequently filed the instant Petition for IPR challenging Claims 1-18 of the '756 Patent, which was accorded a filing date of August 5, 2025. Apple Inc. v. Telcom Ventures LLC, IPR2025-01236, Paper 3 (PTAB Aug. 7, 2025)." This IPR (IPR2025-01236) is challenging the '756 patent (US11770756B2), not US12028793B2. So, I will exclude this IPR from the list for US12028793. Similarly, also lists other IPRs by Samsung against Telcom Ventures LLC challenging patent US9462411. I will focus only on IPRs mentioning US12028793.
The search result for case number 5:25-cv-05041 is actually a different case in the District of New Mexico, and refers to another case in South Dakota District Court. This highlights the importance of checking jurisdiction and parties. However, results and correctly link 5:25-cv-05041 to Telcom Ventures LLC v. Apple Inc. in California Northern District Court.Known litigation involving US patent 12028793:
