Mobile Phone Case Manufacturer Sues Rival for Copying its Designs
Published on:
A mobile phone accessories manufacturer has filed a complaint against a rival claiming unfair competition and infringing intellectual property rights. The complaint has been filed by AGF, parent of Ballistic Case Company against Valor Communication.
USA based AGF filed the complaint alleging that Valor infringes AGF's intellectual property rights associated with its Shell Gell (SG) Series line of protective cases for mobile phones and is unfairly competing with AGF.
"Ballistic's products are associated with innovative designs, engineering expertise, and high quality materials, and filed the lawsuit against Valor to stop it from copying our product designs," said Alan Kleinman, CFO, A.G. Findings & Mfg. "The market for protective device cases is large enough that companies should not have to resort to copying the designs of industry leaders like Ballistic."
AGF is asking for damages and attorneys' fees and court costs, the destruction of the Valor cases that infringe on AGF's Shell Gell (SG) Series line, and an injunction against the importation and sale of infringing cases.
