27. Investоrs whо purchаsed Devlin MаcGregоr stock file а civil lawsuit against Dr. Charles Nichols alleging securities fraud. At trial, the investors present overwhelming evidence that Nichols intentionally falsified clinical study results, submitted fraudulent reports to the SEC, and misled investors about the safety of RDU-90. After hearing the evidence, the jury returns a verdict finding Nichols not liable for securities fraud.

Fоr questiоns 23 – 24, pleаse refer tо the following pаssаge: Michael Jennings is a “reverse engineer” whose business is to buy a product and then reverse-engineer it to find out how it functions. Once a job is complete, Michael’s memory is erased by Shorty to prevent him from divulging secrets regarding the reverse engineering process. ARC has recently put on the market a “living monitor” called “A-life” that can display images on a computer display or monitor in three dimensions (3D). Allcom hires Jennings to reverse engineer the A-Life product. Jennings purchases ARC’s A-Life monitor from a store and eventually determines the complicated algorithms and functionality needed to generate A-Life’s 3D images. Jennings then contacted and sold the technical details that he derived from the reverse-engineering process, not the software code, to Allcom, which never had access to the software code. Jennings is paid a lump sum $526,000.19 paycheck for his work, but Jennings was and is not an agent, employee, or contractor of Allcom, and had no affiliations with Allcom until Jennings offered the technical details for sale. Allcom understood Jennings's reverse-engineering process. Allcom eventually begins to sell its holo-monitor, which incorporated similar functions as A-Life’s product performed. Unbeknownst to Jennings and Allcom, ARC had filed for a U.S. patent prior to Jennings’ reverse-engineering success, but the U.S. patent had been maintained as a secret in the USPTO because it had not been published yet. The now-issued, published valid U.S. patent literally claimed every element of the methods used in Allcom’s product. [Inspired by the movie "Paycheck."]
18. MоsquitоTech, а cоmpаny in Floridа, invents an electrically charged paddle for mosquito killing. The paddle resembles a tennis racket but has electrically charged wires instead of strings. MosquitoTech was granted a valid U.S. patent on an application that was filed in 2000. In the same year, it also obtained a trademark registration for the device: “SwatRak.” It aggressively markets the device, with advertising material that states “Tired of trying to kill mosquitoes with your bare hands? Get a SwatRak,” “Zap them dead with the SwatRak,” “Ask for the SwatRak.” Sales for the device take off. Throughout the term of the patent, hundreds of thousands of people (especially campers) buy the device, asking for it by name “do you have a swatrak?” After the patent expired in 2020, both Acme and Ace corporation come out with their own brand of the device, marketing the device as “Acme swatrak” and “Ace swatrak.” Now, when customers come to the counter and ask for a swatrak, the response of store clerks is “Which brand of swatrak do you want? Acme, Ace, or MosquitoTech?” Upset with this latest development, MosquitoTech immediately sues both Acme and Ace, alleging trademark infringement of their mark “SwatRak.” What is the most likely outcome and the most likely reason why MosquitoTech will win or lose?
