PATENTEE'S MOTION FOR PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION WAS GOVERNED BY FEDERAL CIRCUIT LAW

摘要

A patentee's motion for a preliminary injunction enjoining design patent infringement involved substantive matters unique to patent law. Thus, it was governed by the Federal Circuit's more-likely-than-not standard, rather than the Second Circuit's heightened standard of clear or substantial likelihood of success on the merits. See Revision Military, Inc. v. Balboa Mfg. Co., 700 F.3d 524 (Fed. Cir. 2012).
