Motion Picture Patents Co. v. Laemmle
U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Southern New York
In Equity. Suits by the Motion Picture Patents Company against Carl Raemmle and the Independent Moving Pictures Company of America and against the Pantograph Company, respectively. On motions for preliminary injunctions.
1Opinion of the Court
NOYES, Circuit Judge.
The validity of the patent in suit has been adjudicated by the Circuit Court of Appeals for this circuit (Edison v. American Mutoscope & Biograph Co., 151 Fed. 767, 81 C. C. A. 291), and infringement on the part of the defendant corporations is conceded. Consequently a preliminary injunction should issue, unless this court is convinced (1) of the probability that, had the evidence of new disclosures and uses been before the Circuit Court of Appeals, its conclusion would have been different; or (2) that the complainant is without title to the patent. •
