backJust When You Thought The Patent System Couldn't Become A Bigger Farce Than It Already Is... Via Techdirt -
"Welcome to the lovely world of patent extortion, where the money from the practice is so lucrative that one of the highest paid lawyers at a top law firm would quietly license his patents to be used against his own firm's clients in exchange for a cut of the profits." You have to read it to believe it. [Posted at 10/31/2007 12:33 PM by Justin Levine on Patents (General) Comments IANAL and I am no fan of occupational licensure, but shouldn't Mr. Harris be stripped of his law license and his ill-gotten gains, and maybe even be convicted of a crime and do some time?
Inquiring minds want to know.... [Comment at 10/31/2007 02:24 PM by Bill Stepp] Agreed. I'm against licensing for the legal profession as well. But as long as we are forced into it - Harris should have his suspended at the very least. [Comment at 11/01/2007 04:06 PM by Justin Levine] How is that an indictment of the patent system? The subject of your post was clearly doing something illegal (read: outside of the bounds of the system) and unquestionably unethical. The system which you decry, will almost certainly strip him of his license to practice before the USPTO for inequitable conduct, and I would imagine he'll lose his state bar license as well.
