A Wisconsin State Trooper is suing his department for trying to seize the source code of a program he wrote last year in his spare time. The state contends that the officer wrote it while on duty so they own the source code. Now it is in the hands of a judge.
"Meredith is credited for accomplishing more in one year than software companies have in five years," the State Patrol said in a press release in May 2005, when Meredith received a special honor for his work on the software. Now, he is suing the head of the patrol.
