[QUOTE="RTaylor, post: 547846, member: 834"] well Garfum is going to suffer. March 30th 2016 the judge awarded us attorney fees and he also took the extra unexpected step and invalidated the patent, so NO ONE can be sued EVER again with it. another update :) we were awarded attorney fees. Not 100%, but at least from April I think the judge wondered why I didn't just take Garfum's offer to end the lawsuit, but then he realized my goal was to invalidate the patent. So, even though the case was over, the judge took it upon himself to invalidate the patent for us :) Horrah!! no one can ever be hurt by this ridiculous patent again.
