On December 7, 2023, less than a month after Unified filed an ex parte reexamination, the Central Reexamination Unit (CRU) granted Unified’s request, finding a substantial new question of patentability on all challenged claims of U.S. Patent 8,643,875, owned by eCeipt, LLC, an NPE and IPValuation Partners entity.  The ‘875 patent relates to sending electronic receipts to a customer. It has been asserted against 24 retailers including a pending assertion against Advanced Auto Parts.
