@design_law I normally give grace to inventors on this if they're foreign (though the courts may not with Curver/Surgisil) but this has all U.S. inventors for a U.S. company.

WenzhouFuruisi v. Xing - New declaratory judgment case over allegedly wrongful Amazon takedowns: https://www.scribd.com/document/704655616/WenzhouFuruisi-v-Xing-Complaint

There are a number of accused products. One of the infringement claims might have been colorable (but looks like it should probably lose on the merits).

This one, however, is absolutely ridiculous.

@design_law The use of Murphy bed I can get behind, but this one (and the engine with the engine parts disclaimed) struck me this morning. If I see more like this, I'll start flagging them with a hashtag. ?

@design_law Every week when I'm browsing the new filings, there's at least new issued patent that makes me think the patent owner will soon exhibit concept fallacy.

In a case involving design patents for a unicorn-shaped pool float & a unicorn-shaped inflatable cupholder, Covves moves to prevent Target from presenting evidence of prior art including:

  • “The Unicorn in Captivity” tapestry

  • "A photo of statuary on the Old State House in Boston"; and

  • "A design patent for a “My Little Pony” children’s toy."

@design_law I kind of want to buy Covves counsel a sympathy drink. I can't imagine how much sarcasm and disdain he removed from the initial draft of that filing.
