Waving it Ever Higher
In what seems to be the continuation of a long French tradition, Paris-headquartered Alcatel-Lucent has waved the white flag in its legal fight to defend some shady patent dealings.
After just 2 days into the lawsuit, ALU’s lawyers had had enough legal wrangling and decided to bring out the surrender card. They agreed to settle with the plaintiff and save the perennially loss-making company some amount of dough.
It’s always good to see the active continuation of a long and deeply held tradition, going all the way back to the Gallic Wars.
