Birdsall v. American Sales Book Co.

Birdsall v. American Sales Book Co.
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided April 15, 1922
202 A.D. 733
Birdsall v. American Sales Book Co.

Opinion of the Court

Order modified by granting defendant’s motion so as to strike out paragraph XII of the amended complaint as irrelevant and prejudicial, and as so modified affirmed, without costs. We think this paragraph attempts to state a cause of action for infringement of patent, of which the Federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. (Continental Store Service Co. v. Clark, 100 N. Y. 365; Comerma Co. v. Comerma, 182 App. Div. 576.) Blackmar, P. J., Rich, Kelly, Jaycox and Young, JJ., concur.
