I have a question for you, Mike. If you had passed the bar exam, would you be representing Acacia or CECash?
I would have had to take the exam in order to pass it.

By my first year in law school I realized I hated it, not the law per se, but rather how attorneys abuse the legal system to shake down businesses.

I had significant student loans, which I would have to repay, and since I am not the type of person to quit, I stayed in law school and graduated. My second year I started a multiemedia corporation, that eventually became my adult company.

As far as which side I think should win, that is simple. CECash. Acacia entire business plans relies on enforcing broad patents. The patent they are seeking to enforce is like patenting breathing. I do not think it will be upheld, it definately should NOT be upheld by any court.

They are simply exorting people. It is blackmail, pure and simple. They are abusing the legal system, in my opinion and represent everything that is wrong with the US legal system, and trial attorneys.

I think this is something that even R-n would agree with.
