1 IV. CLAIM FOR RELIEF

(Patent Infringement 35 U.S.C. 271)
2

3 15. Plaintiff repeats and re-alleges the allegations of paragraphs 1-14 of this

4 Complaint as if set forth fully herein.

5
16. This is a claim for multiple acts of patent infringement under 35 U.S. 271.
6
17. Defendant, through its agents, owners, employees, and servants has, and
7

8 continues to, knowingly, intentionally, and willfully directly infringe the Design Patents by

9 using, selling, offering for sale, and/or importing into the United States, automotive air
10
compressor parts having designs that would appear to an ordinary observer to be substantially
11
similar to the claims of the Design Patents, including, for example Defendants automotive air
12
compressor parts shown, identified and described in Exhibit A hereof and incorporated herein
13

14 by reference (hereinafter the Accused Products).

15 18. Defendants acts of infringement of the Design Patents and Plaintiffs patent
16
rights were undertaken without permission or license from Plaintiff. Upon information and
17
belief, Defendant had actual knowledge of the Design Patents and of Plaintiffs rights in the
18

19
designs claimed in the Design Patents.

20 19. Plaintiff and his designs are well-known throughout the aftermarket automotive
21 air conditioning parts industry and the accused products of Defendant are identical or virtually
22
identical copies of Plaintiffs designs.
23
20. Defendants actions constitute willful and intentional infringement of the Design
24

25 Patents and of Plaintiffs rights in the designs claimed in the Design Patents.

 Case 2:17-cv-00206-RAJ-LRL Document 1 Filed 04/12/17 Page 5 of 7 PageID# 5

1 22. Defendant knew, or it was so obvious that Defendant should have known, that its
2
actions constituted infringements of the Design Patents.
3
23. Defendants acts of infringement of the Design Patents were not consistent with
4

5
the standards of commerce for its industry.

6 24. Defendant infringed the Design Patents, for example, by offering for sale and

8
but not limited to, Advance Auto Parts retail stores located at 6224 Richmond Highway, 4349
9
Duke Street and 5117 Franconia Road in the City of Alexandria Virginia and to Advance Auto
10

11 Parts at its corporate headquarters located in Roanoke, Virginia.

12 25. Defendants acts also constitute indirect infringement of Plaintiffs Design Patents
13
and patent rights pursuant to 35 U.S.C. 271(b) because Defendant has actively and knowingly
14
aided and abetted third parties to directly infringe Plaintiffs Design Patents and patent rights.
15
26. As a direct and proximate result of Defendants acts of patent infringement,
16

17 Defendant has derived and received gains, profits and advantages in an amount not presently
