Arlington Industries Wins Infringement Judgment

Arlington Industries

The U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania has found in favour of Arlington Industries, Inc. regarding an infringement of its patents on its SNAP-TITE and SNAP2IT connectors by Bridgeport Fittings. The judgement covers all sales of Bridgeport’s Whipper-Snap Duplex Connectors during the term of Arlington’s Patent. The same court had ordered these connectors off the market from July 2011 to December 2011.

This is the latest in a series of infringement findings against Bridgeport. Arlington is presently pursuing $1.2 million in lost profits from Bridgeport caused by the infringing Whipper-Snap Duplex connectors. Arlington has already received $5.1 million from Bridgeport for patent infringement and is seeking another $3 million award based on Bridgeport’s contempt of an injunction on a related patent.
