Look at these frivolous BD related lawsuits and such

[Metalheadisme]

There isn't enough info here for me to pass judgement....

We have no clue what her patent encompasses and what she is claiming the companies are infringing upon.

There are very valid cases of patent infringement, and then there are ones based on frivilous patent filers getting patents on things that shouldn't be patented in hopes of stealing money from the people doing the real work.

Like in my case, I research optical biological and chemical sensors. You'd be surprised at the patents that are out there for "any system which uses a light source and detector to detect biological or chemical analytes." That type of nonsense would never hold up in the end- there's a grey limit as to how general a patent can be.
