Litigation summary
Past and pending lawsuits — plaintiffs, defendants, jurisdictions, outcomes, and notable rulings.
As of April 26, 2026, U.S. Patent No. 12,337,715, assigned to Emerging Automotive LLC, is involved in at least one known litigation case.
Litigation Details:
Case 1
- Plaintiff(s): Emerging Automotive LLC
- Defendant(s): Toyota Motor Corp., Toyota Motor North America, Inc., Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc., and Toyota Connected North America, Inc.
- Jurisdiction: U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas
- Case Number: 2:25-cv-00782
- Filing Date: August 12, 2025
- Status: Active. In January 2026, Toyota filed a motion to stay the proceedings pending the outcome of validity challenges before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The patents in this case are described as "nearly identical" to others asserted by Emerging Automotive in a 2023 case.
This lawsuit alleges that certain Toyota and Lexus models, with their remote connect technology, infringe on U.S. Patent No. 12,337,715 and others by utilizing user profiles and electronic key systems. Emerging Automotive LLC claims that Toyota encourages and assists customers in infringing the patented systems by providing instructional materials.
It is worth noting that the assignee, Emerging Automotive LLC, has been active in patent litigation. In September 2023, the company filed its first patent lawsuits against Kia and Toyota, asserting different patents related to electronic key services.
