 Oregon Judicial Department Appellate Court Opinions
After a one-day trial, the trial court concluded that the Paine Webber accounts were marital assets and that wife had not rebutted the statutory presumption under ORS 107.105(1)(f) of equal contribution toward the acquisition of the assets.
Having concluded that the funds in the Paine Webber accounts are indeed the "personal property * * * of either or both of the parties," ORS 107.105(1)(f), we turn to their proper disposition.
The only significant exception to that preservation was that she deposited approximately $2,000 from her paychecks in the Paine Webber accounts in order to save toward the purchase of a car, which she ultimately bought with funds from the Paine Webber accounts and titled jointly in both her and husband's names.

 Paine Webber v. Merrill Lynch
Paine Webber contends that the ‘442 patent is invalid under 35 U.S.C. §101 because it does not claim a “process, machine, manufacture or composition of matter” as required by Section 101.
Paine Webber argues that the specifications do not refer to any apparatus, but merely describe a method, and thus the claims of the ‘442 patent are limited to the method described in the specifications.
According to Paine Webber, the “means” portions of the claims thereby refer only to the functional steps rather than to specific apparatus or structure and that the method claimed merely describes a series of manipulative steps that can be performed by hand with the aid of paper, pencil and telephone.

 Paine Webber 'Resigns' Successful Trader Edward Blum for Opposing Racial Quotas
One of Paine Webber’s most lucrative accounts was with the City of Houston, underwriting bonds for the city.
