Top US patent judge resigns following “ethical breach”
- zaroth 12y agoSmall world -- the attorney the judge was complementing was none other than Ed Reines, the Newegg attorney we're always reading about who fights off the trolls.
- Zigurd 12y agoSo that email is an ethical breach, but not... Reuters published a profile of Rader last year, explaining how the judge gave up to 100 speeches a year, many of them abroad, "extolling the American patent system that his court oversees." I assume his expenses were covered. Are judges allowed to take speaking fees?
