Controversial trials, appeals, rulings, and awards continue&mdash;prompting the Wall Street Journal to publish <a href="http://professional.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303772904577336483746932506.html?mg=reno-wsj" mce_href="http://professional.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303772904577336483746932506.html?mg=reno-wsj">Andy Kessler&rsquo;s call</a> for curtailing the rights of non-practicing entities (NPEs), also known affectionately as &ldquo;trolls.&rdquo;&nbsp;</h2>
