Juicy: Former head of IP at Kasowitcz fired for "extremely innappropriate personal conduct"

01-23-2008

Or so claims the firm. But Morgan & Finnegan, who hired Jeremy Pitcock, claims that Pitcock's hiring was "an outstanding addition to our successful litigation process."

Fun! No one seems to know what this alleged personal conduct was, at least not quite yet. It is to be hoped we find out soon. It's not often that the dirty laundry gets aired like this.

10-17-2006

After more than a year of extensive litigation, KBT&F client JDSU, the leading enabler of broadband and optical innovation, reached a resolution of all cases against Metconnex Canada, Inc. Metconnex agreed to cease the manufacture and sale of products accused of infringing JDSU's patents covering optical micro-electro-mechanical-systems. JDSU also acquired all of Metconnex's IP rights as part of the settlement. KBT&F had been prosecuting lawsuits on behalf of JDSU against Metconnex in the United States District Court, Central District of California. Metconnex was represented by Fish & Richardson P.C., while JDSU was represented by KBT&F intellectual property litigators Jeremy S. Pitcock, Lawrence B. Goodwin, Monica Bhattacharyya, Steven D. Chin and Chanah Brenenson.
