Hazeltine Research Corp. v. Freed-Eisemann Radio Corp.

INCH, District Judge.

This is an action in equity. Plaintiff asserts that a certain written sublicense contract should be canceled. The defendant asserts that this contract should not be canceled, but should be reformed as to a certain clause therein, wherein defendant promises to pay a royalty of 6 per cent, on each set manufactured and sold by it. Defendant wants to pay 6 per cent, on patented parts thereof only.

The validity of the Hazeltine patents in the radio art, as well as the validity of certain registered trade-marks associated with the practice of these patents, are not in issue here…
