Judge Posner addresses patent injunction issue in Apple/Motorola

In a post titled Judge Throws Apple-Motorola Patent Claims Out of Court, Mark Long writes

In a preliminary opinion on the lawsuits, Judge Richard Posner said both sides in the patent dispute over smartphone and tablet technology should have their claims dismissed with prejudice because neither party had established a right to relief. The finding would prevent the two sides from bringing a similar suit in the future.

Will Posner singlehandedly force an end to the endlessly-escalating mobile patent wars? Let's hope so. At the very least, his opinion seems to indicate that he realizes the ridiculous (and, often, baseless) nature of all of this never-ending patent litigation.
