CM/ECF Filer or PACER Login
,----[ Quote ]
| NOTICE (8/22/09):The court would like to
| make CM/ECF filers aware of certian security
| conce rns relating to a software application
| called RECAP, which was designed by a group
| from Princeton University to enable th e
| sharing of court documents on the Internet.
| Once a user loads RECAP, documents that
| he/she subsequently accesses via PA CER are
| automatically sent to a public Internet
| repository. Other RECAP/PACER users are then
| able to see whether document s are available
| from the Internet repository. RECAP captures
| District and Bankruptcy Court doucments, but
| has not yet inc orporated Appellate Court
| functionality. At this time, RECAP does not
| appear to provide users with access to
| restricted o r sealed documents. Please be
| aware that RECAP is "open-source" software,
| which can be freely obtained by anyone with
| Int ernet access and modified for benign or
| malicious purposes, such as facilitating
| unauthorized access to restricted or sea led
| documents. Accordingly, CM/ECF filers are
| reminded to be diligent about their computer
| security practices to ensure t hat documents
| are not inadvertently shared or compromised.
| The court and the Administrative Office of
| the U.S. Courts wil l continue to analyze
| the implications of RECAP or related-
| software and advise you of any ongoing or
| further concerns.

Patent on Tax Refund System Deemed Invalid under Section 101
,----[ Quote ]
| E.D. Texas Magistrate Judge Love has
| recommended that H&R Block's advance-tax-
| refund patents be held invalid for failing
| to claim patentable subject matter under
| Bilski. The claims in question are all
| directed toward either a "computerized
| system" or "computer-implemented method."
| Quoting Nuijten, the court first held that
| Bilski controls both system and method
| claims â since a "court should not be
| 'overly concerned with pigeonholing subject
| matter once the court assures itself that
| some category has been satisfied.'"
|
| The claimed invention involves issuing a
| cash-advance to income tax filers and then
| retaining a right to receive payment from
| the government.
