Here is a list of known litigation involving US Patent 9667751:
Realtime Data LLC v. Array Networks Inc.
- Plaintiff(s): Realtime Data LLC
- Defendant(s): Array Networks Inc., Fortinet, Reduxio, Panzura, Aryaka
- Jurisdiction: U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (initially District of Delaware)
- Case Number: 21-2251 (Federal Circuit)
- Filing Date: Realtime filed suit against Fortinet and Reduxio in November 2017, against Panzura in August 2018, and against Aryaka in December 2018.
- Outcome/Status: The Federal Circuit vacated and remanded an earlier district court ruling that had dismissed five patents, including the '751 patent, for lack of subject matter eligibility under 35 U.S.C. § 101. Following remand, the district court again found the patents invalid for claiming patent-ineligible subject matter in a May 4, 2021 written opinion. The district court's decision was based on the finding that the patents were directed to an abstract idea and that the technologies and methods used were well-known and routine.
