Summary: Desperate to overcome "legal barriers" (i.e. to break the law) and impose European software patents on the whole of the EU, Benoît Battistelli and António Campinos have worked to dismantle European patent courts, replacing them with an organ that the EPO controls and can compel to hide the surging invalidity rates (at the expense of the EU's credibility and reputation; remember that the EPO is partly outsourced to Belarus)
