The Federal Circuit hears a patent dispute between Never-Search and Google, Apple, and Microsoft over interactive digital maps. Never-Search sued the companies, claiming that their mapping products infringed its patents. The patents describe features such as updating information about places, moving icons on a map, and displaying information about selected locations. The appeal follows a district judge's decision to dismiss the patent claims as ineligible for protection. Never-Search will argue that these are concrete improvements to digital mapping, while the companies will defend the ruling that the claims merely computerize familiar information-handling tasks. Listen also for whether the judge could treat a few patent claims as representative of others with additional features. Never-Search, Inc. v. Google LLC (No. 25-1585) — U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, argued November 9, 2026.
