On July 17, 2026, Unified filed an ex parte reexamination proceeding against U.S. Patent 12,395,899, another patent owned by Malikie Innovations Limited, an NPE and entity of Key Patent Innovations Limited. The ‘899 patent relates to the negotiation of the prioritization of network management traffic by Wi-Fi stations and access points. This negotiation involves transmitting management frame quality of service (MFQ) policies and requests for changes to MFQ policies between stations and access points. Malikie Innovations has filed several other litigations funded by Key Patent Innovations Limited against networking communications, apps, and Wi-Fi devices.
