Well, as a programmer my Masters degree is in the medical field ... :-)
Oh - and a peer (in its original meaning for juries) has a very simple meaning -
a member of the House Of Lords.

I thought that was a key phrase in patent law - the standard for judging
obviousness, etc. It's the patent law equivalent of the civil law
"reasonable person" if I understand correctly.
Couldn't the judge use that standard as the basis for a preliminary finding of
fact for the construction of any terms defined within a technical field?
Why shouldn't the court be free to seek independent authoritative information
for such matters?
If the court can hire its own damages expert, why on earth can't it engage its
own technical expert?[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
