Patent Reform

Tech companies have decried large patent infringement awards in recent years,
saying a court system that has allowed patent holders to get injunctions on
projects with a small piece of infringing technology has hurt innovation. In May
2006, in a infringement case against eBay Inc., the U.S. Supreme Court
overturned the long-held practice of issuing injunctions against infringing
products in nearly all patent cases.
