IN EQUITY.
(Before Mr. Justice Roper.)
DESIGN OF A CABINET.
Suit for Injunction.
Mr. Stanley Robert Corben, of 47 Alice Street, Newtown, is plaintiff in a suit against Nock and Kirby, Ltd. The plaintiff is a manufacturer of cuttlery cabinets and the substance of the dispute between the parties is wheather the defendant company infringed the plantiff's rights by selling a cabinet of certain design that had not been manufac-tured by him.
The plaintiff is the registered owner, under the Designs Act, of a design for a cabinet (No. 17,237), for five years from October 13, 1937. The design shows a cabinet with raised sides and a sunken lid. The manufactured article is stated to embody novel features, among them being an unhinged lid, which, on being raised, cannot be carried beyond the perpen-dicular. The plaintiff seeks injunction to restrain the defendant from selling cabinets of the design described in the specifications, and the usual orders in respect of delivery up and inquiry as to loss.
The defendant company denies breach and says that the alleged design was not new or original at the date of registration, that a person other than the plaintiff was the author of the design, and registration by the plain-tiff was not valid and that the alleged design was not a proper subject matter for registra-tion.
The hearing stands adjourned until next week.
Dr Frank Louat (instructed by Messrs. Gilbert M. Johnstone and Co.) appeared for plaintiff, and Mr Dudley Williams, K.C. and Mr. M. F. Hardie (instructed by Messrs. Perkins, Stevenson and Co.) for defendant.
