Newegg alleged to sell infringing computer cooling systems

Patents 02

SAN FRANCISCO – A Denmark corporation alleges that infringing computer cooling systems are still being sold by a California corporation.

Asetek Danmark A/S filed a complaint on Dec. 9 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against Newegg Inc. and Newegg North America Inc. alleging patent infringement.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on Jan. 31, 2013, it sued Cooler Master Co. LTD for allegedly unlawfully importing and selling in the United States infringing liquid cooling solution products, under patents '362 and '764, with judgment in favor of plaintiff and court issuing permanent injunction. The plaintiff alleges Newegg continues to sell the infringing products and has ignored two cease and desist letters from plaintiff's counsel.

The plaintiff holds Newegg Inc. and Newegg North America Inc. responsible because the defendant allegedly allowed unlawful sales and imports of products held by the court to have infringed upon plaintiff's products, contributed and continues to contribute in the infringement of plaintiff's patents.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks judgment against defendant for infringing the patents-in-suit, enjoin defendants from further infringement, award all damages, interest and attorneys' fees. It is represented by Robert F. McCauley, Erik R. Puknys, Jacob A. Schroeder and Jeffrey D. Smyth of Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner LLP in Palo Alto and Arpita Bhattacharyya of Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner LLP in Boston.

U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California Case number 3:16-cv-07068
