2023-02-04 "A large company is sued by a start-up venture for technology theft, but fights off the venture's patent rights, then its trademark rights, and finally forces the venture into bankruptcy" [長年日記]

I just went downstairs to the living room and my wife was watching a drama.

The content seemed to be a program for students preparing for the bar exam.

In that scene, the students were solving a case problem: "The wife of a husband who fell to his death at a job site with inadequate safety management takes the company to court.

The students seemed to be discussing the issue from the perspective of 'how to pursue responsibility against the company and win the case.

Well, it's a drama.

-----

I, for a time, attended a private law seminar at my own expense.

Each time I was asked to solve a case study there, the content was very practical.

The setting is the opposite of the above drama.

For example,

"How to dismiss a lawsuit by the wife of a husband who fell to his death at a site with inadequate safety controls"

It was like, "Discuss this from the perspective of a 'lawyer hired by the company'.

In addition to this, I remember the following case.

"A large company is sued by a start-up venture for technology theft, but fights off the venture's patent rights, then its trademark rights, and finally forces the venture into bankruptcy"

-----

In this law seminar, I was taught that the job of a defense lawyer is to "protect and maximize the interests of the client," not to "achieve justice.

(Incidentally, this law seminar is not special, but this is what the study of practical application of law is generally like.)

-----

"Knowledge is power" is not just a philosophy. It is extremely realistic.

I feel comfortable, at least, in paraphrasing "Knowledge is violence.

For example, to me, knowing how the law operates is "violence".

Being able to set up a simulation program is also "violence," and being able to use trigonometric functions as an everyday tool is probably "violence".

In addition, I think that "English", "Sociality", and "athletic ability" are also "violence" -- I am painfully aware of this one as a victim.
