`
`PATENT-IN-SUIT
`
`7.
`
`Plaintiff is the assignee of all right, title and interest in United States Patent No.
`
`9,125,079 (the “Patent-in-Suit”); including all rights to enforce and prosecute actions for
`
`infringement and to collect damages for all relevant times against infringers of the Patent-in-Suit.
`
`Accordingly, Plaintiff possesses the exclusive right and standing to prosecute the present action
`
`for infringement of the Patent-in-Suit by Defendant.
`
`THE ’079 PATENT
`
`8.
`
`The ’079 Patent is entitled “Programmable communicator,” and issued
`
`09/01/2015. The application leading to the ’079 Patent was filed on 08/08/2014. A true and
`
`correct copy of the ’079 Patent is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and incorporated herein by
`
`reference.
`
`9.
`
`The ’079 Patent is valid and enforceable.
`
`COUNT 1: INFRINGEMENT OF THE ’079 PATENT
`
`Plaintiff incorporates the above paragraphs herein by reference.
`
`Direct Infringement. Defendant has been and continues to directly infringe
`
`10.
`
`11.
`
`one or more claims of the ’079 Patent in at least this District by making, using, offering to sell,
`
`
`
`2
`
`
`
`Case 6:20-cv-00867-ADA Document 1 Filed 09/24/20 Page 3 of 6
`
`selling and/or importing, without limitation, at least the Defendant products identified in the
`
`charts incorporated into this Count below (among the “Exemplary Defendant Products”) that
`
`infringe at least the exemplary claims of the ’079 Patent also identified in the charts
`
`incorporated into this Count below (the “Exemplary ’079 Patent Claims”) literally or by the
`
`doctrine of equivalents. On information and belief, numerous other devices that infringe the
`
`claims of the ’079 Patent have been made, used, sold, imported, and offered for sale by
`
`Defendant and/or its customers.
`
`12.
`
`Defendant also has and continues to directly infringe, literally or under the
`
`doctrine of equivalents, the Exemplary ’079 Patent Claims, by having its employees internally
`
`test and use these Exemplary Products.
`
`
`
`13.
`
`Actual Knowledge of Infringement. The service of this Complaint upon
`
`Defendant constitutes actual knowledge of infringement as alleged here.
`
`14.
`
`Despite such actual knowledge, Defendant continues to make, use, test, sell,
`
`offer for sale, market, and/or import into the United States, products that infringe the ’079
`
`Patent. On information and belief, Defendant has also continued to sell the Exemplary
`
`Defendant Products and distribute product literature and website materials inducing end users
`
`and others to use its products in the customary and intended manner that infringes the ’079
`
`Patent.
`
`15.
`
`Induced Infringement. Defendant therefore actively, knowingly, and
`
`intentionally has been and continues to induce infringement of the ’079 Patent, literally or by
`
`the doctrine of equivalents, by selling Exemplary Defendant Products to their customers for
`
`use in end-user products in a manner that infringes one or more claims of the ’079 Patent.
`
`
`

`
`
`
`Case 6:20-cv-00867-ADA Document 1 Filed 09/24/20 Page 4 of 6
`
`16.
`
`Contributory Infringement. Defendant therefore actively, knowingly, and
`
`intentionally has been and continues materially contribute to their own customers infringement
`
`of the ’079 Patent, literally or by the doctrine of equivalents, by selling Exemplary Defendant
`
`Products to their customers for use in end-user products in a manner that infringes one or more
`
`claims of the ’079 Patent. The Exemplary Defendant Products are especially made or adapted
`
`for infringing the ’079 Patent and have no substantial non-infringing use. For example, in view
`
`of the preceding paragraphs, the Exemplary Defendant Products contain functionality which is
`
`material to at least one claim of the ’079 Patent.
`
`17.
`
`Exhibit 2 includes charts comparing the Exemplary ’079 Patent Claims to the
`
`Exemplary Defendant Products. As set forth in these charts, the Exemplary Defendant
`
`Products practice the technology claimed by the ’079 Patent. Accordingly, the Exemplary
`
`Defendant Products incorporated in these charts satisfy all elements of the Exemplary ’079
`
`Patent Claims.
`
`18.
`
`Plaintiff therefore incorporates by reference in its allegations herein the claim
`
`charts of Exhibit 2.
`
`19.
`
`Plaintiff is entitled to recover damages adequate to compensate for Defendants
`
`infringement.
`
