Patent Pirates Exist Only in Neverland

Posted on October 18, 2004 by Philip Mann

That's the title of Michael Smith's excellent op-ed piece appearing in last week's "Texas Lawyer." Michael ably takes on those who naively claim that patent owners, and the lawyers who help them, are "patent pirates." "Plaintiffs in patent litigation are hardly pirates -they are simply investors who bought an asset and seek a return on their money." No argument from me on that.

A copy of Michael's article is available at his "Eastern District of Texas Federal Court Practice" blog. Check it out.
