“Until he finally solved the situation by filing his patents in other countries.”
This is what American firms are now resorting to on a regular basis.
A variation of this just occurred in the last few weeks- Allergan sold their patents to the Mohawk Indian tribe, with a leaseback agreement. Because of Sovereign Immunity their patents cannot be stripped by the PTAB kangaroo court- they can only be challenged in an Article III court, which is how it has always been prior to the PTAB.
Interesting.
