What's interesting in this case is that, in my opinion, the Court ruled correctly; the problem isn't the courts ruling. It's the fact that the law is the way it is: perhaps organism patents should be legal, but the Monsanto situation seems to be a gross exploitation of the current system.

Under the current law, yes, the farmer was in the wrong. It just seems like the current law might need to be changed.
