`
`This is an action for patent infringement arising under the Patent Laws of the
`
`United States of America, 35 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. in which Document Security Systems,
`
`Inc. (“DSS” or “Plaintiff”) makes the following allegations against Defendants Seoul
`
`Semiconductor Co., Ltd. (“Seoul Korea”) and Seoul Semiconductor, Inc. (“Seoul
`
`America”) (collectively “Seoul” or “Defendants”).
`
`PARTIES
`
`1.
`
`Document Security Systems, Inc. is a publicly-traded New York
`
`corporation. Founded in 1984, DSS is a global leader in brand protection, digital
`
`security solutions and anti-counterfeiting technologies.
`
`10
`
`2.
`
`In November 2016, DSS acquired a portfolio of patents covering
`
`11
`
`technologies used in Light-Emitting Diode (“LED”) lighting products, including the
`
`12
`
`patents-in-suit. The patents in this portfolio were originally assigned to Agilent
`
`13
`
`Technologies, Inc. and/or the successors of its LED business. Since its recent
`
`14
`
`acquisition of these patents, DSS has worked to expand its business efforts regarding
`
`15
`
`LED technology. DSS is pursuing both licensing and commercialization of this
`
`16
`
`technology acquisition.
`
`17
`
`3. On information and belief, Seoul Semiconductor Co., Ltd. is a corporation
`
`18
`
`organized and existing under the laws of the Republic of Korea with its principal place
`
`19
`
`of business at 1B-25, 727, Wonsi- dong, Danwon-gu, Ansan-city, Gyeonggi-do,
`
`20
`
`Korea 425-851. Upon information and belief, Seoul Korea manufactures light-
`
`21
`
`emitting diode (“LED”) products in Korea and, through its subsidiary, Defendant
`
`22
`
`Seoul America, has sales offices in the United States. Defendant Seoul Korea can be
`
`23
`
`served with process in Korea pursuant to the Hague Convention on the Service
`
`24
`
`Abroad of Judicial and Extrajudicial Documents, Article 1, November 15, 1965
`
`25
`
`T.I.A.S. No. 6638, 20 U.S.T. 361 (U.S. Treaty 1969).

`
`Cypress, California 90630.
`
`JURISDICTION AND VENUE
`
`5. This action arises under the patent laws of the United States, Title 35 of the
`
`United States Code. Accordingly, this Court has subject matter jurisdiction under 28
`
`U.S.C. §§ 1331 and 1338(a).
`
`6. This Court has personal jurisdiction over Defendants in this action because,
`
`10
`
`among other reasons, Defendants have committed acts within the Central District of
`
`11
`
`California giving rise to this action and have established minimum contacts with the
`
`12
`
`forum state of California. Defendants directly and/or through subsidiaries or
`
`13
`
`intermediaries (including distributors, retailers, and others), have committed and
`
`14
`
`continue to commit acts of infringement in this District by, among other things,
`
`15
`
`making, using, importing, offering for sale, and/or selling products and/or services
`
`16
`
`that infringe the patents-in-suit. Thus, Defendants have purposefully availed
`
`17
`
`themselves of the benefits of doing business in the State of California and the exercise
`
`18
`
`of jurisdiction over Defendants would not offend traditional notions of fair play and
`
`19
`
`substantial justice.
`
`20
`
`7. Venue is proper in this District under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1391 (b)-(c) and 1400(b)
`
`21
`
`because Defendants have a regular and established place of business in this District
`
`22
`
`and have committed acts of patent infringement in this District. Defendants, for
`
`23
`
`example, have a regular and established place of business at 5856 Corporate Ave, No.
`
`24
`
`240, Cypress, CA 90630, which is located in Orange County.
`
`25
`
`26
`
`8. DSS is the owner by assignment of United States Patent No. 6,949,771 (“the
`
`BACKGROUND
`
`27
`
`’771 Patent”) entitled “Light Source.” The ’771 Patent was duly and legally issued by
`
`28
`
`the United States Patent and Trademark Office on September 27, 2005. A true and

`
`(“the ’486 Patent”) entitled “Packing Device for Semiconductor Die, Semiconductor
`
`Device Incorporating Same and Method of Making Same.” The ’486 Patent was duly
`
`and legally issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office on August 14,
`
`10
`
`2007. A true and correct copy of the ’486 Patent is included as Exhibit C
`
`11
`
`11. DSS owns all rights, title, and interest in and to the ’771, ‘087 and ‘486
`
`12
`
`Patents (collectively, “asserted patents” or “patents-in-suit”), including all rights to

`
`12. DSS references and incorporates by reference paragraphs 1 through 10 of
`
`17
`
`this Complaint.
`
`18
`
`13. Defendants make, use, offer for sale, sell, and/or import in the United
`
`19
`
`States products and/or services that infringe various claims of the ’771 Patent, and
`
`20
`
`continues to do so. By way of illustrative example, Defendants’ infringing products
`
`21
`
`include without limitation, all versions and variations, including predecessor and
`
`22

`successor models, of its T6 Series LEDs, SFT-722NS, and LEDs including the 3020,
`
`23
`
`3030 (automotive), 3528, and 5630 (automotive) packages. Defendants’ infringing
`
`24
`
`products also include products, e.g., light bulbs, displays and fixtures that contain at
`
`25
`
`least one infringing LED product. Defendants’ infringing products are collectively
`
`26
`
`referred to hereinafter as “’771 Accused Instrumentalities.”
`
`27

`
`802 Series (Automotive) LED products. Defendants’ 802 Series (Automotive)

`

`
`conductive material for conducting heat away from the light emitting diode because
`
`the “platform” comprises a metal lead frame that conducts heat away from the light
`
`emitting diode.
`
`18. Defendants have directly infringed and continue to directly infringe the ’771
`
`Patent by, among other things, making, using, offering for sale, selling, and/or
`
`importing the ’771 Accused Instrumentalities. Such products and/or services are
`
`covered by one or more claims of the ’771 Patent’s including at least claims 1 to 8
`
`because they contain each element of those claims.
`
`10
`
`19. By making, using, offering for sale, selling, and/or importing the ’771
`
`11
`
`Accused Instrumentalities infringing the ’771 Patent, Defendants have injured DSS
`
`12
`
`and are liable to DSS for infringement of the ’771 Patent pursuant to 35 U.S.C. §
`
`13
`
`271(a) directly and/or under the doctrine of equivalents.
`
`14
`
`20.
`
`In addition, Defendants are actively inducing others, such as their
`
`15
`
`customers and end users of Accused Instrumentalities, services based thereupon, and
`
`16
`
`related products and/or processes, to directly infringe each and every claim limitation,
`
`17
`
`including without limitation claims 1 to 8 of the ’771 Patent, in violation of 35 U.S.C.
`
`18
`
`§ 271(b). Defendants’ customers and/or end users have directly infringed and are
`
`19
`
`directly infringing each and every claim limitation, including without limitation
`
`20
`
`claims 1 to 8 of the ’771 Patent. Defendants have had actual knowledge of the ’771
`
`21
`
`Patent at least as of service of this Complaint. Defendants are knowingly inducing
`
`22
`
`their customers and/or end users to directly infringe the ’771 Patent, with the specific
`
`23
`
`intent to encourage such infringement, and knowing that the induced acts constitute
`
`24
`
`patent infringement. Defendants’ inducement includes, for example, providing
`
`25
`
`technical guides, product data sheets, demonstrations, software and hardware
`
`26
`
`specifications, installation guides, and other forms of support that induce their
`
`27
`
`customers and/or end users to directly infringe the ’771 Patent. The ’771 Accused
`

`

`
`their intended purpose.
`
`21. Defendants specifically intend their United States customers infringe the
`
`‘771 patent through use of the ‘771 Accused Instrumentalities in this country by at
`
`least advertising and promoting the use (e.g., hyperlinked “Application” below) of the
`
`‘771 Accused Instrumentalities on their United States website: See, e.g.,
`
`http://www.seoulsemicon.com/en/applications/. Defendant also specifically intends its
`
`customers infringe the ‘771 Patent through use of the ‘771 Accused Instrumentalities
`
`10
`
`through trade show presentations, customer visits, direct customer contacts and
`
`11
`
`application guides. Defendants also specifically intend its customers infringe the ‘771
`
`12
`
`Patent through selling ‘771 Accused Instrumentalities overseas with the specific intent
`
`13
`
`that the customer import, offer to sell, and/or sell the ‘771 Accused Instrumentalities
`
`14
`
`in order to develop and serve the United States market for Defendant’s LED products,
`
`15
`
`either alone or used in products such as bulbs, displays, consumer products and/or
`
`16
`
`fixtures. Such customers include Defendant’s LED distributors, consumer products
`
`17
`
`companies and retailers that serve the United States market. See
`
`18
`
`http://www.seoulsemicon.com/en/support/where-to-buy/, naming Avnet, Digi-Key,
`
`19
`
`Mouser Electronics, and WPG Americas as United States distributors of Defendants’
`
`20
`
`products.
`
`21
`
`22. Defendants have been aware of the ’771 Patent and of its infringement as
`
`22
`
`of a date no later than the date they were served with the complaint in the case 2:17-
`
`23
`
`cv-308, filed April 13, 2017. Since that date, Defendants have failed to investigate
`
`24
`
`and remedy their infringement of the ‘771 Patent and thus willfully and egregiously
`
`25
`
`continue to infringe the ‘771 Patent. On information and belief, Defendants continued
`
`26
`
`to offer infringing products without having modified or altered those products in a
`
`27
`
`manner that would not infringe the ‘771 patent. Defendants, at the very least, have
`
`28
`
`been egregiously and willfully blind to infringement of the ‘771 Patent. Further

`
`Instrumentalities with knowledge that these acts constitute infringement of the ‘771
`
`Patent, with the purpose of, inter alia, developing and serving the United States
`
`market for Defendants’ LED products and consumer devices that include Defendants’
`
`products.
`
`23. As a result of Defendants’ infringement of the ’771 Patent, DSS has
`
`suffered monetary damages in an amount adequate to compensate for Defendants’
`
`10
`
`infringement, but in no event less than a reasonable royalty for the use made of the
`
`11
`

`
`importing the ’087 Accused Instrumentalities. Such products and/or services are

`
`In addition, Defendants are actively inducing others, such as their
`
`customers and end users of Accused Instrumentalities, services based thereupon, and
`
`related products and/or processes, to directly infringe each and every claim limitation,
`
`including without limitation claim 1 of the ’087 Patent, in violation of 35 U.S.C. §
`
`271(b). Defendants’ customers and/or end users have directly infringed and are
`
`directly infringing each and every claim limitation, including without limitation claim
`
`1 of the ’087 Patent. Defendants have had actual knowledge of the ’087 Patent at
`

`
`10
`
`to encourage such infringement, and knowing that the induced acts constitute patent
`
`11
`
`infringement. Defendants’ inducement includes, for example, providing technical
`
`12
`
`guides, product data sheets, demonstrations, software and hardware specifications,
`
`13
`
`installation guides, and other forms of support that induce their customers and/or end
`
`14
`
`users to directly infringe the ’087 Patent. The ’087 Accused Instrumentalities are
`
`15
`
`designed in such a way that when they are used for their intended purpose, the user
`
`16
`
`infringes the ’087 Patent. Defendants know and intend that customers that purchase
`
`17
`
`the ’087 Accused Instrumentalities will use those products for their intended purpose.
`

`
`‘087 patent through use of the ‘087 Accused Instrumentalities in this country by at
`
`20
`
`least advertising and promoting the use (e.g., hyperlinked “Application” below) of the

`
`33. Defendants have been aware of the ’087 Patent and of its infringement as of
`
`a date no later than the date they were served with the complaint in the case 2:17-cv-
`
`308, filed April 13, 2017. Since that date, Defendants have failed to investigate and
`
`10
`
`remedy their infringement of the ‘087 Patent and thus willfully and egregiously
`
`11
`
`continue to infringe the ‘087 Patent. On information and belief, Defendants continued
`
`12
`
`to offer infringing products without having modified or altered those products in a
`
`13
`
`manner that would not infringe the ‘087 patent. Defendants, at the very least, have
`
`14
`
`been egregiously and willfully blind to infringement of the ‘087 Patent. Further
`
`15
`
`evidence of Defendants’ egregious and willful infringement are the acts of active
`
`16
`
`inducement described in this Complaint. Defendants actively induce and encourage
`
`17
`
`customers to make, use, sell, offer to sell and/or import the ‘087 Accused
`
`18
`
`Instrumentalities with knowledge that these acts constitute infringement of the ‘087
`
`19
`
`Patent, with the purpose of, inter alia, developing and serving the United States
`
`20
`
`market for Defendants’ LED products and consumer devices that include Defendants’
`
`21
`
`products.
`
`22
`
`34. As a result of Defendants’ infringement of the ’087 Patent, DSS has
`
`23
`
`suffered monetary damages in an amount adequate to compensate for Defendants’
`
`24
`
`infringement, but in no event less than a reasonable royalty for the use made of the
`
`25
`
`invention by Defendants, together with interest and costs as fixed by the Court.

`
`INFRINGEMENT OF THE ’486 PATENT
`
`35. DSS references and incorporates by reference paragraphs 1 through 24 of
`
`this Complaint.
`
`36. On information and belief, Defendants make, use, offer for sale, sell,
`
`and/or import in the United States products and/or services that infringe various
`
`claims of the ’486 Patent, and continues to do so. By way of illustrative example,
`
`Defendants’ infringing products include without limitation, all versions and variations,
`
`including predecessor and successor models, of its ZPower LED – Z5M, Z5M0,
`
`10
`
`Z5M1, Z5M2, Z5P, Z5, Z7, Z7-F, Z6, and P5 II LED products. Defendants’ infringing
`
`11
`
`products also include products, e.g., light bulbs, displays and fixtures that contain at
`
`12
`
`least one infringing LED product. Defendants’ infringing products are collectively
`
`13
`
`referred to hereinafter as “’486 Accused Instrumentalities.”
`
`14
`
`37. On information and belief, Defendants have directly infringed and
`
`15
`
`continues to directly infringe the ’486 Patent by, among other things, making, using,
`
`16
`
`offering for sale, selling, and/or importing the ’486 Accused Instrumentalities. On
`
`17
`
`information and belief, such products are covered by one or more claims of the ’486
`
`18
`
`Patent including at least claim 1 because they contain each element of that claim.
`
`19
`
`38.
`
` As an illustrative example, Defendant imports, sells and offers to sell its
`
`20
`
`Z5 LED products. Defendant’s Z5 infringes, for example, Claim 1 of the ‘486 patent
`
`21
`
`because it is a semiconductor device comprising a substantially planar substrate
`
`22
`
`having opposed major surfaces:
