This is ridiculous. It's more profitable for the smaller company to patent something, wait for a bigger corporation to invent the same thing, and then sue them for patent infringement.
But then gain, the real culprit is the monetary system in general and as long as it's around, the lawsuits for monetary gain will continue. In fact, many problems will be solved by ridding the world of the monetary system (the root of most problems is monetarily based) because the real question when doing anything is if the physical resources (not monetary) is available. We are conditioned to believe that without money, no one would do anything to gain their daily needs for survival.
For example, a person who loves to teach in a monetary system cannot teach for free b/c they would be unable to earn the money necessary to support themselves and their family. Same goes for a school, they are limited by the number of teachers they can hire based on their monetary budget, regardless of the number of teacher available to teach. However, in a society that supplies the daily need for survival without a price tag (no monetary system), will allow a person who loves to teach to teach and the school will have no monetary limit to how many teacher that can work at their school.
In conclusion, the monetary system, does not represent the actual non-monetary based resources such as teachers, and only acts as a method to divide who gets what in a world that can provide a moderate standard of living to everyone (without a price tag), but fails to do so because there is no profit to be made.
