Worlds Inc (WDDD)

[postyle]

Sorry, but that does not apply.

Worlds (WDDD) filed the lawsuit in March 2012. The possibility of 3rd party IPRs was not even known at that time.

The inter partes review process was enacted on September 16, 2012. Nobody knew for years what the impact would be or what loopholes in the AIA law would be exploited and to what degree. It has taken a long time for this headache (the IPR process) to manifest itself and in no way could SG or anyone else predicted that 3rd parties (that are not real parties-in-interest to an existing lawsuit) would game the system and circumvent the one-year petition deadline.

Much has been written on IPRs, publicly traded investments, and the backlash created by the AIA (and the need for immediate reform at the legislative level). I suggest all interested in WDDD take the time to do the research.

SG spent 90 days studying this case before they accepted. The prior art argument has been played ad nauseam and WDDD patents have passed the test.
