Life in the Fast Lane: College Savings Bank
College Savings Bank took its case all the way to the
Supreme Court and lost. It had sued the state of Florida for infringing
its patent on CollegeSure CDs, a financial program that uses certificates
of deposit to save for and prepay college tuition. Florida offered
a similar savings plan. But in two 5-4 rulings, the Supreme Court
ruled against the Vaughn Drive-based bank (http://www.collegesavings.com).
In this victory for states rights the majority opinion — that
individuals and companies cannot sue states to enforce a federal right,
such as a patent — was written by Chief Justice William Rehnquist,
joined by Justices Sandra Day O’Connor, Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy,
and Clarence Thomas. In the minority, arguing that "no man is
above the law," and that this includes state agencies, were Justices
John Paul Stevens, David Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Stephen
Breyer.
