Federal Judge Issues Patent Injunction in Garvey Corporation’s Favor
PRESS RELEASE
CHICAGO, Illinois, April 5, 2005 – The Garvey Corporation of Blue Anchor, New Jersey today announced that the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois has issued an order forbidding Barry-Wehmiller Design Group, Fleetwood, Inc. and any subsidiaries, affiliates, divisions or related companies, from manufacturing, displaying, promoting, marketing, selling, shipping, distributing, or installing, any of Fleetwood’s CMAS product accumulators. The Court found that it is “reasonably likely” that a jury will find that Fleetwood’s CMAS accumulator products are covered by the claims of Garvey’s patents relating to its Infinity line of accumulator products. “Garvey Corporation deeply appreciates the time and effort which the United States District Court in Chicago clearly invested in accessing Garvey’s patent infringement contentions against the defendants” said Mark Garvey, Garvey’s president.
