`

`
`
`
`portal license:
`
`
`

`
`ADP has directly infringed, and continues to directly infringe one or more claims
`
`of the ’578 Patent in this judicial district and elsewhere in Texas, including at least claims 1-8,
`
`10-13, 15, 17-24, 26-29, 31-39, 41-42, and 46 literally and/or under the doctrine of equivalents,
`
`by or through making, using, importing, offering for sale and/or selling the ADP portal during
`
`the pendency of the ’578 Patent which software and associated backend server architecture inter
`
`alia allows for installing application programs having a plurality of configurable preferences and
`
`authorized users on a network, distributing an application launcher program to a user, the user
`
`obtaining a set of configurable preferences, obtaining an administrator set of configurable
`
`preferences and executing the application program using the user and administrator sets of
`
`configurable preferences responsive to a request from a user.

`
`28.
`
`In addition, should the ADP portal be found to not literally infringe the asserted
`
`claims of the ’578 Patent, the product would nevertheless infringe the asserted claims of the ’578
`
`Patent. More specifically, the accused software/system performs substantially the same function
`
`(making computer games available for digital download/management), in substantially the same
`
`way (via a client/server environment), to yield substantially the same result (distributing
`
`application programs to a target on-demand server on a network). ADP would thus be liable for
`
`direct infringement under the doctrine of equivalents.
`
`29.
`
`ADP has indirectly infringed and continues to indirectly infringe at least claims 1-
`
`8, 10-13, 15, 17-24, 26-29, 31-39, 41-42, and 46 of the ’578 Patent in this judicial district and
`
`elsewhere in the United States by, among other things, actively inducing the using, offering for
`
`sale, selling, or importing Workforce Now. ADP’s customers who use the ADP portal in
`
`accordance with ADP’s instructions directly infringe one or more of the forgoing claims of the
`
`’578 Patent in violation of 35 U.S.C. § 271. ADP directly and/or indirectly instructs its
`
`customers through training videos, demonstrations, brochures, installation and/or user guides,
`
`such as those located at the following:

`
`ADP is thereby liable for infringement of the ’578 Patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b).
`
`30.
`
`ADP has indirectly infringed and continues to indirectly infringe at least claims 1-
`
`8, 10-13, 15, 17-24, 26-29, 31-39, 41-42, and 46 of the ’578 Patent in this judicial district and
`

`
`others including, without limitation customers using the ADP portal, by making, offering to sell,
`
`selling and/or importing into the United States, a component of a patented machine, manufacture
`
`or combination, or an apparatus for use in practicing a patented process, constituting a material
`
`part of the invention, knowing the same to be especially made or especially adapted for use in
`
`infringing the ’578 Patent and not a staple article or commodity of commerce suitable for
`
`substantial non-infringing use.
`
`31.
`
`For example, the ADP portal is a component of a patented machine, manufacture,
`
`or combination, or an apparatus for use in practicing a patent process. Furthermore, the ADP
`
`portal is a material part of the claimed inventions and upon information and belief is not a staple
`
`article or commodity of commerce suitable for substantial non-infringing use. ADP is, therefore,
`
`liable for infringement under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c).
`
`32.
`
`ADP will have been on notice of the ’578 Patent since, at the latest, the service of
`
`this complaint upon ADP. By the time of trial, ADP will have known and intended (since
`
`receiving such notice) that its continued actions would actively induce, and contribute to, the
`
`infringement of one or more of claims 1-8, 10-13, 15, 17-24, 26-29, 31-39, 41-42, and 46 of the
`
`’578 Patent.
`
`33.
`
`ADP may have infringed the ’578 Patent through other software utilizing the
`
`same or reasonably similar functionality, including other versions of the ADP portal. Uniloc
`
`reserves the right to discover and pursue all such additional infringing software.
`
`34.
`
`Uniloc has been damaged, reparably and irreparably, by ADP’s infringement of
`
`the ’578 Patent and such damage will continue unless and until ADP is enjoined.

`of the ’766 Patent in this judicial district and elsewhere in Texas, including at least claims 1, 3, 5,
`
`7, 9, 11, 13, 15 and 17, literally and/or under the doctrine of equivalents, by or through making,
`
`using, importing, offering for sale and/or selling the ADP portal during the pendency of the ’766
`
`Patent which software and associated backend server architecture inter alia allow for
`
`maintaining user policy based license management information for application programs at a
`
`

`
`server, receiving a request for a license at the server, determining license availability based on
`
`the policy information, and providing an indication of availability or unavailability.
`
`61.
`
`In addition, should the ADP portal be found to not literally infringe the asserted
`
`claims of the ’766 Patent, the product would nevertheless infringe the asserted claims of the ’766
`
`Patent. More specifically, the accused ADP portal performs substantially the same function
`
`(managing licenses for authorized computer games/software based on user policy information),
`
`in substantially the same way (via a client/server environment), to yield substantially the same
`
`result (providing authorized games/software to a client). ADP would thus be liable for direct
`
`infringement under the doctrine of equivalents.
`
`62.
`
`ADP has indirectly infringed and continues to indirectly infringe at least claims 1,
`
`3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 and 17 of the ’766 Patent in this judicial district and elsewhere in the United
`
`States by, among other things, actively inducing the using, offering for sale, selling, or importing
`
`the ADP portal. ADP’s customers who use the ADP portal in accordance with ADP’s
`
`instructions directly infringe one or more of the forgoing claims of the ’766 Patent in violation of
`
`35 U.S.C. § 271. ADP directly and/or indirectly instructs its customers through training videos,
`
`demonstrations, brochures, installation and/or user guides, such as those located at the following:
`
`•
`
`•
`
`•
`
`•
`
`www.adp.com
`
`www.my.adp.com
`
`https://portal.adp.com
`
`www.youtube.com
`
`ADP is thereby liable for infringement of the ’766 Patent under 35 U.S.C. § 271(b).
`
`63.
`
`ADP has indirectly infringed and continues to indirectly infringe at least claims 1,
`
`3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 and 17 of the ’766 Patent in this judicial district and elsewhere in the United
`
`
`
`17
`
`

`

`Case 2:16-cv-00741-RWS Document 1 Filed 07/08/16 Page 18 of 20 PageID #: 18
`
`States by, among other things, contributing to the direct infringement by others including,
`
`without limitation customers using the ADP portal, by making, offering to sell, selling and/or
`
`importing into the United States, a component of a patented machine, manufacture or
`
`combination, or an apparatus for use in practicing a patented process, constituting a material part
`
`of the invention, knowing the same to be especially made or especially adapted for use in
`
`infringing the ’766 Patent and not a staple article or commodity of commerce suitable for
`
`substantial non-infringing use.
`
`64.
`
`For example, the ADP portal is a component of a patented machine, manufacture,
`
`or combination, or an apparatus for use in practicing a patent process. Furthermore, the ADP
`
`portal is a material part of the claimed inventions and upon information and belief is not a staple
`
`article or commodity of commerce suitable for substantial non-infringing use. ADP is, therefore,
`
`liable for infringement under 35 U.S.C. § 271(c).
`
`65.
`
`ADP will have been on notice of the ’766 Patent since, at the latest, the service of
`
`this complaint upon ADP. By the time of trial, ADP will have known and intended (since
`
`receiving such notice) that its continued actions would actively induce, and contribute to, the
`
`infringement of one or more of claims 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 and 17 of the ’766 Patent.
`
`66.
`
`ADP may have infringed the ’766 Patent through other software utilizing the
`
`same or reasonably similar functionality, including other versions of the ADP portal. Uniloc
`
`reserves the right to discover and pursue all such additional infringing software.
`
`67.
`
`Uniloc has been damaged, reparably and irreparably, by ADP’s infringement of
`
`the ’766 Patent and such damage will continue unless and until ADP is enjoined.
`
`PRAYER FOR RELIEF
`
`Uniloc requests that the Court enter judgment against ADP as follows:

`

`Case 2:16-cv-00741-RWS Document 1 Filed 07/08/16 Page 19 of 20 PageID #: 19
`
`
`
`(A)
`
`that ADP has infringed the ’578 Patent, the ’293 Patent, the ’466 Patent and the
`
`’766 Patent;
`
`
`
`(B)
`
`awarding Uniloc its damages suffered as a result of ADP’s infringement of the
`
`’578 Patent, the ’293 Patent, the ’466 Patent and the ’766 Patent;
`
`
`
`(C)
`
`enjoining ADP, its officers, directors, agents, servants, affiliates, employees,
`
`divisions, branches, subsidiaries and parents, and all others acting in concert or privity with it
`
`from infringing the ’578 Patent, the ’293 Patent, the ’466 Patent and the ’766 Patent;
`
`awarding Uniloc its costs, attorneys’ fees, expenses and interest, and
`
`granting Uniloc such other and further relief as the Court may deem just and
`
`
`
`
`
`(D)
`
`(E)
`
`proper.
`
`DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL
`
`
`
`Uniloc hereby demands trial by jury on all issues so triable pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 38.
