Patent Trolls Beware

This week, House Judiciary Chair Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) announced that he intends to introduce a bill as early as next week that will address patent troll abuses.  On the Senate side, Senate Judiciary Chair Pat Leahy (D-VT) believes that his companion bill will be ready after recess.  The efforts of both members will combine numerous bills that have been introduced by lawmakers on this issue by both parties.  This news, combined with President Obama's commitment to addressing the patent troll issue, could force the offending trolls to halt their behavior in the near term.  For more information on the Coalition for Patent Fairness' efforts in this area, please visit the link below.
