Ortiz & Associates Takes on ScreenCloud in Patent Dispute

Posted by William P. Ramey III | May 29, 2025 | 0 Comments

In a compelling legal development that could reshape how wireless data is managed and distributed, Ortiz & Associates Consulting, LLC has launched a patent infringement lawsuit against ScreenCloud, Inc. This case represents a significant challenge in the evolving landscape of wireless data brokering technology.

The Technology at the Heart of the Dispute

Filed by Ramey LLP on April 29, 2025, in the Middle District of North Carolina, the lawsuit centers on U.S. Patent No. 9,549,285, which covers sophisticated "Systems, methods and apparatuses for brokering data between wireless devices, servers and data rendering devices." This patent represents a crucial innovation in how data flows between different technological components in our increasingly connected world.

More Than Just a Legal Challenge

This lawsuit transcends typical patent disputes, touching on fundamental questions about how data is managed, transferred, and rendered across multiple device types. The patent in question appears to address the complex choreography required to seamlessly move information between wireless devices, servers, and the systems that ultimately display that data to users.

The Players in This Digital Drama

The case brings together two distinct entities:

  • Ortiz & Associates Consulting, LLC: A consulting firm protecting its technological innovations in data brokering
  • ScreenCloud, Inc.: A company specializing in digital signage and display solutions

The Broader Technological Context

In our hyper-connected world, the ability to efficiently broker data between different types of devices has become increasingly critical. Whether it's pushing content to digital displays, synchronizing information across wireless networks, or managing data flows between servers and rendering devices, the technology covered by this patent appears to address fundamental challenges in modern computing infrastructure.

What's at Stake

The implications of this case extend far beyond the immediate parties:

  • How do we protect innovations in data management and distribution?
  • What constitutes true technological advancement in wireless data brokering?
  • Can specialized patents protect the complex systems that make our connected world function?

A Human Story of Innovation

Behind the technical specifications lies a narrative about problem-solving and innovation. It's about consultants and technologists who identified a gap in how data moves through our technological ecosystem and developed a solution to address those challenges.

Legal Strategy and Commitment

With a demand for a jury trial, Ramey LLP signals Ortiz & Associates' serious commitment to defending their intellectual property. This isn't just about monetary compensation – it's about protecting the innovations that enable our modern digital infrastructure.

Looking Forward

As the legal proceedings unfold, the technology industry will be watching closely. Will this patent prove to be a foundational technology for data brokering? Can Ortiz & Associates demonstrate that their approach represents a truly innovative solution to complex connectivity challenges?

The outcome could influence how companies approach data management across wireless networks and rendering systems.

The Continuing Story

This lawsuit represents more than a legal dispute – it's a chapter in the ongoing story of technological innovation, intellectual property protection, and the complex systems that power our connected world.

The data brokering battleground awaits its next development.
