Discovery sues Amazon *again*...

http://www.crunchgear.com/2010/07/15...ngement-again/

New lawsuit, same claim as last march.
Still at issue: a broad, vague patent that took ten years to get out of the Patent Office and was never followed up on. Nothing new.
And no danger of lawyers going unemployed.

Next!

Gotta love patent trolls. Let me take a wild guess, the suit was filed in Texas?

Actually, it's the same lawsuit as before. Discovery just reassigned the patent ownership to a LLC, and filed to update the lawsuit to reflect that.

Quote:
Discovery said it previously filed the patent infringement case in on March 17, 2009. Discovery said it recently moved the patents to a separate corporate entity and Wednesday's complaint reflected that move.
