Recent legal ruling on design patents favors companies like Apple

According to Kelly Burris, an attorney with Brinks Hofer Gilson & Lione, one of the largest intellectual property law firms in the U.S., the legal standard for design patent infringement has changed.

Swisa, Inc., (decided September 22, 2008), the more recent "Point of Novelty" test was eliminated in favor of exclusive application of the long-established "Ordinary Observer" test. Previously, with the Point of Novelty test, an accused product only constituted infringement if it incorporated the element or elements of the patented design that distinguished the patented design from prior art. Using the Ordinary Observer test, when an ordinary observer (purchaser) is deceived into confusing the accused product with the patented design, an infringement has occurred.
