Patent

The court ruled that despite the formal registration in the husband's brother's name, both brothers were equal partners in the technology company and the patent it developed, and therefore the rights will be included in the division of property between the spouses.

The woman conducted an exhausting legal process in which she demanded a share in her ex-partner's partnership, even though an actuary determined that the value was zero. The court finally granted her request for rights, but ordered her to pay 50,000 shekels in legal costs.
