GN Danavox, Inc. v. Starkey Laboratories, Inc.
Court of Appeals of Minnesota
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
AMUNDSON, Judge.
Starkey appeals from the trial court’s order denying its post-trial motions for judgment notwithstanding the verdict (JNOV), remittitur, or a new trial. We affirm.
FACTS
Danavox and Starkey compete in the manufacture and sale of hearing aids. In early 1987 Danavox claims it received reports Starkey’s telemarketers had informed customers Danavox was going out of business. About the same time, Starkey purchased a small number of used hearing aids from Danavox. The parties’ correspondence shows Starkey intended to use the hearing aids as parts in its all-make repair facility.
