Fighting Crime in the Beltway
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has upheld a lower court invalidation of the District of Columbia law imposing price controls on drugs. That law proscribed prices that are "excessive," whatever that means. In any event, the lower court had ruled that the patent laws preempt efforts by the D.C. government to steal intellectual property. A small news item on page B37, a giant leap for efforts to prevent legalized theft. Who says there's no good news?
