Here in Texas we are very fortunate to have a fabulous and strong Association of Realtors® - TAR / Texas Association of Realtors®. 
Their latest victory for our industry is beating back a Troll. As reported by TAR...
TAR wins case that protects you from frivolous patent claims A patent owned by Uber Technologies Inc. that had been used to bring patent-infringement lawsuits against Texas real estate firms has been invalidated, thanks to legal efforts by the Texas Association of REALTORS®.

Hi Lisa - this is becoming a problem and not only here. Glad this frivolous claim was shut down.
Hello Grant Schneider
Isn't it ridiculous what people will try to pull? This time, they chose the wrong state to mess with!
Great to have an association that actually DOES something...wonder what that would feel like !
We also have a great board Lisa Von Domek
Lisa: Good to hear TAR beat this one. There are way too many frivolous lawsuits these days.
We are fortunate Sally K. & David L. Hanson sad to hear that yours is not very active
That is good to hear Hannah Williams !
It is ridiculous how litigious society has become Anita Clark and frivolous lawsuits cost us all!
Morning Lisa.
Always good to hear about a winner for our business. I do hope Uber had to pay the attorneys costs for TAR
Great news, Lisa... TAR did a masterful job in this case and hopefully this sets a trend for other associations.
It was a great victory James Dray we are very proud of our Texas Association!
I agree Nina Hollander every win for the good guys is a great win!
