1. United Carbon Co. v. Binney & Smith Co., No. 71, SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES, November 13, 1942, Argued , December 7, 1942, Decided
OVERVIEW: Patentee's claims were inaccurate suggestions of the functions of the product; they ran afoul of the rule that a patentee could not broaden his claims by describing product in terms of function, and thus were insufficient for indefiniteness.
