Marsh v. Shepard
Supreme Court of the United States · Decided March 14, 1887 · Waite

Marsh v. Shepard

Opinion

Me. Chief Justice Waite

delivered the opinion of the court.

This motion is denied. The sole ground of the application is, that since the appeal the Supreme Court of Michigan has, in a suit between the same parties, enjoined these appellants from making any claim against the appellee for the use of the patented invention which is the subject matter of the suit, and has required them to release all the claims and demands which they have been prosecuting.

Marsh and Le Fever oppose this motion, and Scott has no right to dismiss for them.

Motion denied.
