Sumario: Una mirada a las noticias de patentes de los Estados Unidos, enfocándonos principalente en los trolles de patentes o las patentes de software (su arma preferida)

Las Payasadas de los Trolles se Extienden



"Las acciones de “ServiceNow (NOW) subieron el Martes,” dice este artículo, €¨con palabras de que pueda arreglar algunas de sus litigaciones de patentes con la compañía privada BMC Software, evitando un largo juicio a empezar el próximo Viernes.€¨



"El costo de ir a juicio (además de todos los recursos que suelen derivarse de ello y, además, de su duración, que pone a uno en duda e incertidumbre) es mayor que simplemente arreglarse por anticipación."Esto es lo que frecuéntemente pasa cuando se trata de patentes de software. El costo de ir a juicio (más las apelaciónes que siguen y más aún su duración que causa duda e incertidumbre) es mayor que simplemente arreglarse. Eso es lo que causó la aparición de los llamados €¨trolles de patentes€¨, aunque compañíás con productos reales hacen lo mismo (nuestro próximo post tratará de Microsoft, que ha creado una entidad troll llamada “Microsoft Technology Licensing LLC”).

Patent Reform in the US



“En su Patently-O Patent Law Journal ensayo,” dice esta publicación, “James Daily reporta los resultados de su investigación en la firma de estas cartas abiertas [acerca de la reforma de patentes que se enfoca en los trolles de patentes]. Encuentra, entre otros que los que firman la segunda carta son (1) probablemente contribuyentes al Partido Repúblicano y (2) probablemente están registrados como abogados de patentes.€¨

"Los republicanos suelen representar (o apoyar) lo que es bueno para las grandes CORPORACIONES, que también son representadas por los abogados de patentes (por lo tanto "derrocha "dinero a todos ellos, a expensas de todos los demás)."Esto era de esperarse, pero recibiendo un recordatorio que refuerze esa expectación puede ayudar. Los republicanos suelen representar (o apoyar) lo que es bueno para las grandes CORPORACIONES, que también son representadas por los abogados de patentes (por lo tanto "derrocha "dinero a todos ellos, a expensas de todos los demás).

IAM No Sabe Quienes son los “Trolls” (Sigue al Dinero)



€¿Porqué todavía vemos tántos trolles de patentes en los Estados Unidos? €¿Porqué la gerencia de la EPO quiere traérlos a Europa con la UPC? y €¿Porqué amigos de la gerencia de la EPO (sitios como IAM) reciben dinero para promover la UPC para suavizar la imágen de los trolles de patentes? Sigan al dinero. No es difícil.

"Es realmente obvio que el Distrito Este de Texas es amigable a los trolles de patentes."Consideren este nuevo artículo de los compadres de los trolles de patentes quienes también reciben dinero de ellos (cuyo Editor en jefe no sabe cuanto dinero se recibe de promotores), Cuando escriben acerca de ellos, se las arreglan para no mencionar la palabra “troll” (porque pueda ofender a la compañía paterna de IAM, que también es financiada por los trolles). Aquí esta el último ejemplo que dice que €¨mientras el Congreso espera, la Corte de Apelaciones por el Circuito Federal (CAFC) esta lista para enfrentarse a una de las más controversiales aspectos del infringimiento de los casos de patentes en los Estados Unidos - el espinozo asunto de compras. Casi todos los lados del debate de reforma estan de acuerdo que no es saludable en un despropórcionado largo número de casos en cualquier campo que sea escuchado por sólo un juez. El año pasado, de acuerdo con Lex Machina, 2,540 patent casos fueron sometidos al Distrito Este de Texas – 43.6% del total de juicios sometidos en ese país. De aquellos, 1686 fueron aplicados con el juez Rodney Gilstrap. A pesar de las habilidades juiciales de este juez, la falta de pluradidad no pone al sistema de patentes de los Estados Unidos en buena luz.€¨

Asombrosamente, el artículno no dice una palabra acerca de los trolles. Sorpréndentemente, no miran la correlación entre el Distrito Este de Texas, los trolles de patentes, e incluso de las patentes de software.

“El Tribunal Supremo de los Estados Unidos se negó lunes a volver a escuchar los argumentos de Pi-Net International Inc., que vio su apelación en el Circuito Federal en un caso contra JPMorgan descartado después de que utilizara el formato de trucos para ocultar el hecho que su escrito de apelación era demasiado largo.”
      --Law 360
€¨Por supuesto,€¨ añadieron, €¨si la CAFC o el Congreso obstaculizar la capacidad de los demandantes de patentes de traer sus casos en el Este de Texas, finalmente veremos silos dueños de patentes se congregaron allí no porque las cortes les dieron un juicio fácil, pero porque es el único lugar en el cual ellos han sido capazes de obtener un juicio €¨justo€¨.€¨

Es realmente obvio que el Distrito Este de Texas es amigable a los trolles de patentes. Incluso abiertamente lo publica, como fue ampliámente cubierto en la prensa algunas semanas atrás. €¿Cómo pudo IAM perderse este hecho crucial?

Temor de PTAB (Jurado de Juicios de Patentes y Apelaciones)



La Asociación de Dueños de Propiedad Intelectual, que esencialmente es un grupo cabildero de los super-ricos (no sólo cualquier dueño de patentes), esta tratándo de demoler previas reformas que fueron introducidas por una corte conocida por elimnar un montón de patentes de software, especialmente despues del caso Alice. Hay también un artículo €¨Circuito Federal [CAFC] se prepara ya que la PTAB impulsará más Revisiones AIA€¨, que esta relacionado con lo que escribimos hace dos días.

Las Patentes Conservan el Precio de Tinta Altísimos Como El Firmamento



Para entender el amplio impacot del maximalismo de patentes miremos no más alla que la historia de Lexmar, que continúa siendo materia de análisis de abogados, e.g. [1, 2, 3, 4] en dias reciéntes.

€¿Demasiádo Trabajo? !Inadmisible!



No pudimos evitar notar este nuevo artículo que dice que “El Tribunal Supremo de los Estados Unidos se negó lunes a volver a escuchar los argumentos de Pi-Net International Inc., que vio su apelación en el Circuito Federal en un caso contra JPMorgan descartado después de que utilizara el formato de trucos para ocultar el hecho que su escrito de apelación era demasiado largo.”

Mucho puede decirse acerca de esto, acerca de los descarados abogados que disfrazaron el tamaño del resumen a la corte que juzga basado en el número de palabras (en vez de su mérito).
