Victory Belt Co. v. Marshall Field & Co.

UNDUEY, District Judge.
Plaintiff below appeals from a decree of the District Court, dismissing for want of equity its bill brought for injunction against alleged infringement of patent No. 1;177,079, Agrilla, for improvement in belts, and for accounting. The leather belt being sold by appellee, defendant below, is identical in construction with that of plaintiff, claimed to be protected by claim 2 of the patent in suit. Defendant contends that the patent is void for want of invention, and that, if the patent is valid, neither belt is within it. We shall discuss these questions in their order:
