For Fish & Richardson, the Scott Harris saga is a dark chapter in firm history. Harris, readers of this column will recall, is the former Fish principal fired by the firm when it was revealed that his patents were being asserted against some big companies. In the ensuing litigation, Fish accused Harris of committing a “stunning betrayal”: hatching plans to sue technology companies—some of them Fish clients—while he was still employed by the firm.
Compare the strong response to Harris’s transgressions with the firm’s reaction to the activities of Choongsoo Park, a former associate in Fish’s Washington, D.C. office who departed last year.
