Irrevocable Pledge And Assignment: Fill & Download for Free

“Open [source] patent” refers to an invention with respect to which the patent owner agrees not to assert the patent against third parties (under specified circumstances).As an example, here is a portion of Google’s Open Patent Non-Assertion Pledge:Google promises to each person or entity that develops, distributes or uses Free or Open Source Software (a “Pledge Recipient”) that Google will not bring a lawsuit or other legal proceeding against a Pledge Recipient for patent infringement under any Pledged Patents based on the Pledge Recipient’s (i) development, manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale, lease, license, exportation, importation or distribution of any Free or Open Source Software, or (ii) internal-only use of Free or Open Source Software, either as obtained by Pledge Recipient or as modified by Pledge Recipient, in standalone form or combined with hardware or with any other software (“Internal-Only Use”). The preceding Pledge does not apply to any infringement of the Pledged Patents by hardware or by software that is not Free or Open Source Software, or by Free or Open Source Software combined with special purpose hardware or with software that is not Free or Open Source Software (except Internal-Only Use).It is Google’s intent that the Pledge be legally binding, irrevocable (except as otherwise provided under “Defensive Termination” below) and enforceable against Google and entities controlled by Google, and their successors and assigns. Thus, Google will require any person or entity to whom it sells or transfers any of the Pledged Patents to agree, in writing, to abide by the Pledge and to place a similar requirement on any subsequent transferees to do the same.The Pledge is not an assurance that any of the Pledged Patents cover any particular software or hardware or are enforceable, that the Pledged Patents are all patents that do or may cover any particular Free or Open Source Software, that any activities covered by the Pledge will not infringe patents or other intellectual property rights of a third party, or that Google will add any other patents to the list of Pledged Patents. Except as expressly stated in the Pledge, no other rights are waived or granted by Google or received by a Pledge Recipient, whether by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.Google’s pledge pertains to software, but there are non-software open patents, as well, such as Tesla’s (quoting, in part, All Our Patent Are Belong To You):Tesla Motors was created to accelerate the advent of sustainable transport. If we clear a path to the creation of compelling electric vehicles, but then lay intellectual property landmines behind us to inhibit others, we are acting in a manner contrary to that goal. Tesla will not initiate patent lawsuits against anyone who, in good faith, wants to use our technology.

What you need to do in order to take over the ‘property rights’ of a friend in prison would depend on what rights you want/need to ‘take over’ and where you and/or the property is (i.e., what jurisdiction).The one thing that wouldn’t matter much is where your friend is, in prison, although if you and/or the property is located in a jurisdiction that requires a specific type of notarization, where your friend is in prison could complicate things slightly as a practical matter.A power of attorney would be required for most property rights, such as the right to sell or the right to pledge as security. The type of power of attorney, whether absolute or not, revocable or irrevocable, etc. will depend on the jurisdiction, once again.However, some of the simpler rights, such as to collect rent or access an adjoining property per a valid easement, could be had with a written contract that is less onerous than a power of attorney that may require notarization. For example, an assignment or a lease and sublease could allow you to collect rents.I think it's also worth noting that this question doesn't have anything to do with intellectual property.

According the Quran the answer is yes. According the Bible the answer is Yes. Paul was a prophet and there were many more. Even prophetes.But let’s see what the Quran has to say about this subject. Big blunder of Muhammad.Surah 3:81: And remember when Allah took the Covenant of the Prophets, saying: “Take whatever I gave you from the Book and Hikmah (understanding of the Laws of Allah), and afterwards there will come to you a Messenger (Muhammad) confirming what is with you; you must, then, believe in him and help him.” Allah said: “Do you agree to it and will you take up My Covenant which I conclude with you?” They said: “We agree.” He said: “Then bear witness; and I am with you among the witnesses for this.” (Hilali-Khan)A careful examination of Surah 3:81 reveals the following:((1) Allah made a Covenant with the Prophets who lived before the time of Muhammad.(2) These Prophets were called upon by Allah to pledge their support to a forthcoming Messenger who was to appear to them later.(3) The Prophets agreed and Allah secures their pledge to assist this forthcoming Messenger.(4) This coming Messenger will confirm the previous Book of Allah which is in the possession of these Prophets.(5) Since this Messenger will come during the lifetime of these Prophets, they will be on hand to personally witness his confirmation of their sacred Book.(6) Allah concludes the Covenant by bearing witness along with the Prophets to ensure the fulfillment of this divine agreement.(7) Therefore, Surah 3:81 testifies that Allah himself is a witness to this irrevocable Covenant which guarantees that there will be Prophets on hand to assist this forthcoming Messenger in his assigned mission.All Muslim scholars acknowledge that the Messenger mentioned in Surah 3:81 refers to none other than Muhammad. As can be noted, this conclusion is further substantiated in the above translation of the Qur’an by Hilali-Khan. This raises some very vital questions:Who were the Prophets who lived during the time of Muhammad to fulfill this Covenant of Allah?Who were the Prophets on hand to help Muhammad in his mission as the Messenger of Allah?Who were the Prophets present at the time of Muhammad to witness his confirmation of their Scriptures?None! Not a single Prophet, from among whom Allah allegedly made the Covenant with, was present at the time of Muhammad. Yet, Allah clearly testified to the presence of these Prophets during the time of this Messenger. In fact, Allah swore these Prophets into his Covenant for the sole purpose to support this forthcoming Messenger. And Allah bore witness in the Qur’an that these Prophets will be on hand to assist this Messenger in his mission. However, there were none – not even newly appointed Prophets to act as substitutes for these Prophets. This leaves us with two options:One: Allah was wrong in his claim regarding the presence of Prophets during the time of Muhammad.Two: The Messenger mentioned in Surah 3:81 is referring to someone other than Muhammad.Either option spells disaster for Islam. What is even more damaging for Islam is the fact that Muhammad excluded himself as the Messenger in Surah 3:81. Why do we say that? This is because Muhammad clearly ruled out the co-existence of any Prophets during his career as the Messenger of Allah. Muhammad openly testified to this reality when he proclaimed the following to his early Companions.Sahih Muslim, Book 30, Number 5835:Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: I am most akin to Jesus Christ among the whole of mankind, and all the Prophets are of different mothers but belong to one religion and no Prophet was raised between me and Jesus.A well-known Islamic website was asked how many Prophets were there between the time of the death of Jesus and the birth of Muhammad. Here is their reply:The only Prophet Allah appointed after He raised Jesus (a.s.) to Himself alive, was the Last and Final Messenger of Allah, Mohamed ar-Rasool Allah (saws). There are no Prophets between Jesus (a.s.) and the Mohamed ar Rasool Allah (saws). (Encyclopedia of searchable Islamic Q & A, Quran, Hadith & Books - Islamhelpline)Muhammad clearly taught that “no Prophets” were raised between the time of Jesus and him. In other words, the only Prophet who came after the time of Jesus was Muhammad. This means that there could be no Prophets on hand to either welcome or assist Muhammad. However, Surah 3:81 clearly testifies that there would be Prophets available to assist this new Messenger. Since all Islamic scholars without exception recognize Muhammad as the Messenger of Surah 3:81, they must now explain why there were no Prophets at the time of Muhammad. Muslims cannot provide the name of a single Prophet who was a contemporary of Muhammad. The instant they come up with a name, they would be challenging the teachings of Muhammad.Let us pause for a moment and let this sink in. Here we find two conflicting teachings in Islam. Allah clearly stated in Surah 3:81 that there would be Prophets to assist Muhammad. In contrast, Muhammad taught there would be none. Muslims have to choose between Allah and Muhammad. If Allah is right, then Muhammad is wrong. On the other hand, if Muhammad is right, then Allah is wrong. Either option destroys the legitimacy of Islam since this clearly demonstrates that one of them is definitely in error. As events unfolded, it became evident that there were no Prophets at the time of Muhammad. Thus, Allah was clearly in error. Man can make mistakes but not God. This fatal error of Allah in the Qur’an proves that he is a false god. As such, Muhammad was a prophet of a false god. Can a prophet of a false god be a true prophet? Absolutely not! This is an irrefutable evidence in the Qur’an that Muhammad was a false prophet. Muslims have to choose between a false prophet and a false god.
