Prof. Cotter Quoted in Star Tribune on 'Patent Trolls'

Professor Tom Cotter was quoted in a Star Tribune article about aggressive patent infringement lawsuits filed by patent assertion entities or "patent trolls." Cotter stated that the number of such suits has increased dramatically in the last few years, due in part to the increasing number of software and business method patents.
