|---|---|---|
| schestowitz | > Thanks for the response and the comments. I have just finished an email | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > I sent to Benjamin as I have to given advice on his planed legal action | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > and every time I contact him he tells me about legal matters, so I had | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > to respond and give advice. | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > As you say the UPC matter is a bit static but the general global trend | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > is denationalisation of state powers, so these things will keep coming. | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > There may be a modification of the UPCA but it will come back again, and | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > as this is a very specialised matter, there really is no much resistance. | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | This is how they want it... | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > The book project should go on as we have gathered so much information | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > and we will need to tell the story and get for the UPC scandal the | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > attention it deserves. As I wrote to Benjamin, this is a matter of | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > personal legacy also and how we want to be remembered. | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | Too much misinformation was planted in the media for many years. | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > There are few things that Benjamin is pursuing at the moment and he says | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > he is a bit busy for the next two months but I asked him to write a | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > timeline of events, starting with the Commissions’ proposal for a | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > Directive on the patentability of software in 2002-5, the CJEU’s Opinion | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > 01/09, etc. and his activist action around these events, like a personal | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > memoir but in the form of timeline, with brief notes to record the | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > events and his actions. It should not be difficult. | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > As for me, I will do the following: First, because Benjamin is still | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > pushing certain legal matters, I had promised him some months ago to | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > raise a complaint with the EU Ombudsman about the non-publication of the | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > Advocate Generals’statement of position on the CJEU’s Opinion 01/09, | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > where they specifically point out that there is a major problem with the | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > EPO. I have to do this now, it should not take more than a week. Second, | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > I will write a sample and will give it to you. The events that I will | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > describe go back to the period around the hearing of the Spanish | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > complaint against the Unitary Patent Regulations. They involve a serious | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > breach of confidentiality that allowed a very known lawyer/academic, | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > Prof Tilmann, probably one of the most influential players that have | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > existed in this story, to play around the opinion of the CJEU through a | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > published article. I managed to have it withdrawn from both the CJEU’s | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > website and European Intellectual Property Review but, I lost the fight, | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > as the Advocate General (AG) used the exact expressions and arguments | Jun 11 05:04 |
| schestowitz | > from Tilmann’s article (albeit in French) and, subsequently, the CJEU | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > followed the AG. This is relevant to the propaganda theme of the book | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > that I think you have followed more than anyone else. | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | GRUR published for him. | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > As for Ingve, I am a bit sad. I note your comment that he wanted the | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > internet traffic from you, but this does not matter, since the guy was | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > doing things that served the cause. To be honest, over the years he has | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > used some things from my research with no acknowledgment, and it’s ok, | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > as he kept fighting. On one occasion, he did make a reference. He had | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > also told me, for the Tilmann incident I described above, that he did | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > not want to be seen that he is connected to other people. It makes some | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > sense, as he was feeling different kind of pressure. It might also be | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > that he was seeking public attention for himself. None of these issues | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > matter but only what good he did for the cause. | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | This is all very typical of him. | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > In short, please allow me the following week to prepare the complaint | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > with the EU Ombudsman, which I will also send it to you for comments | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > before submission and after that I will start writing the sample I | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > mentioned above and we will take it from there. | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | Sounds reasonable. | Jun 11 05:05 |
| schestowitz | > Dear Roy, | Jun 11 05:10 |
| schestowitz | > I just received this. Things at the EPO are not getting better, on the | Jun 11 05:10 |
| schestowitz | > contrary. | Jun 11 05:10 |
| schestowitz | > Kind regards | Jun 11 05:10 |
