Patent Malpractice
For any of you that don't get the Daily Journal - the headline yesterday is a preliminary judgement of $30M against Fish & Richardson (and attorney John Land) for missing a PCT filing deadline. The firm failed to timely file an international application, then argued that even though it was their mistake, the application wouldn't have been worth anything, anyway.
Ouch. I wonder if all our malpractice rates will go up?
