Law: A Decade Later, Amazon Finds Itself on Other Side of '1-Click' Patent Battle http://www.digitalmajority.org/forum/t-170138/law:a-decade-later-amazon-finds-itself-on-other-side-of-1-cl Posts in the discussion thread "Law: A Decade Later, Amazon Finds Itself on Other Side of '1-Click' Patent Battle" - Ten years ago, Amazon.com riled the tech world when it sued Barnes & Noble with a patent on "1-click" buying. Critics cried that clicking once to order a book wasn't really an invention -- and certainly not worthy of a patent. And it became the poster child for a patent system gone overboard. Now, Amazon is defending itself against Cordance Corp., a company that claims it filed for its patent on 1-click ordering before Amazon's application. The case, filed in 2006, is set for trial on Aug. 3 in Delaware -- and Fenwick & West's Lynn Pasahow, the Palo Alto, Calif.-based lawyer who worked to enforce Amazon's 1-click patent, will now play defense for the online bookseller.
