Opinion
No. 7554.
Argued November 12, 1940.
Decided December 9, 1940. Writ of Certiorari Denied April 7, 1941. See 61 S.Ct. 837, 85 L.Ed. ___.
Appeal from the District Court of the United States for the District of Columbia.
Thomas L. Mead, Jr., of Washington, D.C., and Ernest P. Rogers, of Atlanta, Ga., for appellant.
W.W. Cochran, U.S. Patent Office, R.F. Whitehead, and Herbert H. Porter, all of Washington, D.C., for appellees.
Before STEPHENS, VINSON, and EDGERTON, Associate Justices.
This case is governed by Coe v. Hobart Manufacturing Company, 70 App.D.C. 2, 102 F.2d 270, and J.C. Eno (U.S.) Limited v. Coe, 70 App.D.C. 337, 106 F.2d 858. We have carefully considered the earnest and thoughtful argument of appellant's counsel that we should overrule those cases, but we are still of opinion that they were rightly decided.
The judgment appealed from is therefore affirmed.
