Thisnis the internet, no need to post half remembered fragments. I'm sure the judge you're referring to is the notorious Rodney Gilstrap.
Plenty of good info on that operation, e.g. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2015/06/east-texas-judges-invention-a-method-for-hampering-patent-defendants/ https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2015/06/east-texas-judge...
- jmyeet 3y agoThat was, I believe, they judge they wanted to get in front of. At one point there was another judge in that district that they didn't want to get in front of and a law firm just so happened to employ the second judge's son (? IIRC).
- grungyneer 3y agoJudge Jacqueline Scott Corley didn't recuse herself from hearing the Microsoft-Activision FTC case just because her son works at Microsoft (and ruled in msfts favor!) So are recusals for such conflicts really optional? https://www.thebignewsletter.com/p/will-the-biggest-tech-merger-of-all https://www.thebignewsletter.com/p/will-the-biggest-tech-mer...
