We Need to Save Europe From the Lawlessness of EPO 'Mafia' (Corrupt Management That Doesn't Understand Patents or Law)

Video download link



Summary: The Boards of Appeal of the EPO still lack (and crave for) independence; a lot of cases can be stacked and their outcome accordingly rigged to serve the agenda of the Office

THIS morning we wrote about the “missing signatures” which demonstrate bias at the EPO's Boards of Appeal (or some of them anyway). Two “missing signatures” persons are still involved in an impending case, even after the removal of two members.



"This means that the very location of the Boards of Appeal remains problematic; they never regained their independence, which was truly lost around 7 years ago."The video above explains the severity of the situation, discusses this morning's article in somewhat of a rush, and then presents misinformation from Juve (in recent years the site has been little but a mouthpiece of Team UPC and patent maximalists, sometimes the EPO's administration as well). Haar, according to Wikipedia, is not in Munich and we look at the history of edits. This means that the very location of the Boards of Appeal remains problematic; they never regained their independence, which was truly lost around 7 years ago.

We are eager to see justice in Europe; the video explains why lawlessness at the EPO easily extends to lawlessness or a state of legal disarray in the EU as a whole, both institutionally and principally in the context of courtrooms. Courts must not become political (nor instruments of corporate string-pulling).
