By Memorandum Opinion entered by The Honorable Leonard P. Stark in 3G Licensing, S.A. et al. v. Blackberry Ltd. et al., Civil Action No. 17-82-LPS-CJB (D.Del. March 22, 2018) (consolidated), the Court granted Defendants’ motion pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(c) for judgment on the pleadings that all the claims of U.S. Patent No. 6,212,662 (“the ‘662 patent”) are invalid under 35 U.S.C. § 101. The ‘662 patent is entitled “Method and Devices for the Transmission of Data with Transmission Error Checking” and “[t]he invention relates to a method for the transmission of data with transmission effort checking.” Id. at *1. In short, upon conducting the two step Alice/Mayo analysis, the Court found that the claims of the ‘662 patent were directed to an abstract idea and did not contain an inventive concept. Id. at *11-18. Thus, the Court held that the ‘662 patent is not patent eligible and granted motion for judgment on the pleadings on invalidity in favor of Defendants. Id. at *18.

A copy of the Memorandum Opinion is attached.
