I posted a notice at Legal Match early this morning. Later, I got this nice email from Brad G. Jubber, an attorney in Wisconsin with a BSME and an aerospace engineering background; now a patent/IT attorney:
—
Thank you for reaching out about your concern that your Mars trajectory research from graduate school was used in the Copernicus software. On a short call, I would want to understand what you created and presented in 2000 and what records of that work you still have. I would also compare that work with what was later released and look at the timing of when you learned of it, since that shapes your options. Getting clear answers on these questions means you can move forward with confidence, and I would enjoy helping you get there.
I would like to set up a short call to hear the facts and see whether I can help. Please reply with two or three times that work for you, your time zone, and a good number to reach you, and I’ll send my booking link.
