Concrete Steel Company v. Vandenburgh/Opinion of the Court

by William Howard Taft

United States Supreme Court

261 U.S. 16

Concrete Steel Company  v.  Vandenburgh

 Argued: Jan. 17, 1923. ---

This is a review of the decree of the Circuit Court of Appeals of the Second Circuit, sustaining the validity of claim No. 3 of the Vandenburgh patent, just considered in the previous case of Vandenburgh v. Truscon Steel Co., 261 U.S. 6, 43 Sup. Ct. 331, 67 L. Ed. —and awarding $15,000 for profits to Vandenburgh for defendant's infringement. The two cases cannot be distinguished. We must therefore reverse the decree of the Circuit Court of Appeals of the Second Circuit, and direct the dismissal of the bill.

Reversed.
