Inline Plastics accuses Lacerta of infringing three patents on tamper-resistant containers. Inline, who makes the SAFE-T-FRESH® line of food packaging products, asserts that Lacerta’s “FRESH N’ SEALED” products infringe U.S. Patent Nos. 7,118,003, 7,073,680, and 9,630,756.
Willfulness is alleged, based both on marking and on Lacerta having faced the earlier pair of the asserted patents in prosecution of their own applications. In addition to injunctive and monetary damages, Inline seeks an order requiring destruction of the tooling, molds, prints, and the like used to make the accused products.
