It is also noted that an ex parte reexamination of the patent was requested by Unified Patents in July 2025, and the Central Reexamination Unit (CRU) granted this request in August 2025, finding "substantial new questions of patentability" for the challenged claims. This reexamination process could impact the ongoing litigation. The provided information from the prompt indicates that the patent expired on December 29, 2025, which would generally limit the ability to assert new infringement claims for actions occurring after that date. However, cases filed prior to expiration would still proceed to determine past infringement and damages.
