Ubiquitous Connectivity, LP v. Txu Energy Retail Company LLC, No. 23-1349 (Fed. Cir. June 9, 2023)

From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

Ubiquitous Connectivity, LP, sued TXU Energy Retail Co. LLC in the Northern District of Texas, alleging in- fringement of three U.S. patents. When the attorneys for Ubiquitous moved to withdraw from representation (be- cause Ubiquitous terminated their representation), the dis- trict cou rt—recognizing that Ubiquitous, a limited partnership, could appear only through licensed counsel— deferred ruling on the motion until replacement counsel for Ubiquitous appeared.
