The lasering patents included, but several others I'd like to see challenged. Competition in any arena brings more creativity and therefore potential profit to any industry.</p> <p>"Frivolous" patents are a different "animal" from Copyrights, but with reference to the renewed legal activities with the industry, I saw in current (Dec 05) EJ that Crown won a significant settlement from a competitor who duplicated their copyrighted designs.<br /> Similarly, Mike Davis' editorial in the Nov issue of EJ, was on this very issue; I thought it was very well done.</p> <hr /><a name="a1477_32"></a><p><b>From: Stunt Engraver (DGL)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=1477.32">#32</a>]<br /> 14 Feb 2006<br /><b>To: ALL</b></p> <p>= UPDATE =</p> <p>TOG vs. Sawgrass</p> <p>From a document dated Feb. 10, 2006.</p> <p>(paraphrased)</p> <p>Sawgrass Technologies' motion, requesting a change of venue, from Texas to South Carolina, fell flat.</p> <p>Won't happen.</p><p class="edit_text">EDITED: 14 Feb 2006 by DGL</p> <hr /><a name="a1477_33"></a><p><b>From: Stunt Engraver (DGL)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=1477.33">#33</a>]<br /> 30 Mar 2006<br /><b>To: ALL</b></p> Here's an excerpt from TOG's recent post to DSSI:<br /> <br /> The Court will consider our claim construction for the Markman hearing in less than 180 days. The good news is that we are moving forward.
