Bridgeport Fittings appeal rejected by court

The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed a unanimous jury verdict of patent infringement that Arlington Industries, Inc., Scranton, Pa., obtained last summer against Bridgeport Fittings, Stratford, Conn. The verdict held that Bridgeport had infringed upon one of Arlington's plastic box extender patents. The jury rejected all of Bridgeport's defenses.
