O.K. , I think I missed some news somewhere.
Did Sartek win the patent infringement suit?
Also, the suit was against the entire industry, a very large list initially, but was wittled down some overtime. Actually, a much larger list than Carmichael ever sued. Funny, no one berates Sartek for going after everyone and costing what has to be in the millions by now, for what my understanding will most likely be an invalidated patent claim.
Fickle world, to say the least...............
Last time I checked Sartek didn't sue anyone who didn't make lights though.

Carliegh Rae Corp. (Carmichael, Halcyon, et.al - its a convoluted mess of intertwined ownership and officers there), however, did sue someone (Oxycheq) over a weight patent when Oxycheq didn't actually make weighting systems, and then (if Oxycheq's reports are correct) demanded during settlement negotiations all current stock of their wings and a permanent injunction against future production of same....

Gee, what do you think that one was about?
