Vice-Chancellor's Court, ...
AIr. TitESLOVE moved for an injunction to restrain the defendant frorm exporting tbree gun-barrels, of.a particular description, which had been entered at the Custom-house, and were to be 8hipped fior Dantsic. The motion was made upon an affidavit of the plaiatiff, wbich stated that he vsas the inventor of an improved gun-barrel, and thfat the King's patent had been granted to him for thati inven. tion, by which the 601e manufacture of all sucl barrels was secured to him. The affidavit further charged, that the defen;Pant had imi, tated the barrels, and had inanufactured several, and had fraudu- lently placed upon them a forgedl copv ot the mark by which Ilr. Il[anton distinguished his own p,uns. Among others, thle plaintifl had discovered that there was at this time a case lying at the fCus. manufacture, which case was consigned by the jefenrdnt to certaiin permons at Dantsic. The injunction of the Court was therefore prayed to res8train the exportation of those barrels, and to prevert the defendant from making any others in imitation of MIr. Manton's patent. 2The YlCE-CEtAnCELLOB said, the injunetion might be taken. The practice of the defendant wras evidently a gross fraud on Alr. D.lanton, and an infrngJement of' his patent, MIr. ' tESLOVZ said, the injunction prayed also that the de- fendant might be restrained from obtaining possession of the barrels at the Custome-house. 'The VICE.CHAXCEI.Yont tbought this sbould be the object of a separate rmotion, and that notice should be given nf it: all the ether parts of the injunction the Court woould grant ge- parte.
