Lets say two companies filed patents for essentially the same thing several
years apart, but do to overreaching obfuscated language the patent office
allowed both patents to be filed.
We have
Patent A filed first.
Patent B filed second.
There is of course a lawsuit over this. Company A is charging B with violating.
Owner of B is trying to invalidate A. A may have made some technical errors
which allows this. Also there may be some lawyering mistakes.
If patent A is invalidated but it is technically the same thing as patent B.
What is the status of patent B?
Patent B did not cite patent A as precursor work.

include two or more devices configured to perform a simplified data transfer.
The first device may be configured to save and transfer data associated with

"City of London Police inform TorrentFreak that they have
begun targeting
sites that provide access to unauthorized
content for “criminal gain.” The
initiative is part of a
collaboration with Hollywood studios represented by
FACT and
the major recording labels of the BPI. In letters being sent
out now,
police accuse site operators of committing offenses
under the Serious Crime
Act. The National Fraud Intelligence
Bureau further warns that the crimes carry
a jail sentence
of 10 years." link
The 'City of London` being a
legal entity that does not operates
under UK jurisdiction.
The reason why the UK gov can't reel in the excesses of
the
financial sector.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
