Who is Mr. David? And why do you care why Mr. David did what he did? Who are you?
If Mr. David copied anything from Ms. Hettinger's expired patent, then things are working as they should. The whole point of a patent is that the inventor tells the world about the invention, in exchange for the right to keep others from copying the same invention for a limited time.
Plagiarism doesn't apply to patents, but you can infringe a patent. However, to infringe a patent, the patent must be valid and not expired. If Ms. Hettinger's patent expired, she has no right to the invention over Mr. David. As to why he did what he did, thats probably a better question for Mr. David.
wording of order
What exactly does it mean when the custody order says that father is to have visitation as determined by the terms and conditions set by the mother from both a legal and practical standpoint?
