Supreme Court Says Over 200 Patent Judges Were Improperly Appointed:

“The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that more than 200 administrative judges who hear patent disputes, some of them over billions of dollars, had been appointed in violation of the Constitution.”

These judges are indeed unconstitutional. Because they are judges — in the Executive Branch. Which means the Executive Branch is pretending to be the Judicial Branch. And that’s a bit of a Separation of Powers problem.

These alleged judges preside over the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) — about which we’ve been warning for more than a while.
