Interference No. 103,878
Patricia Milling, met with senior party Thompson at Thompson’s
place of business. JP27; JP32; JP173. At the meeting,
Thompson described a lighting fixture that he hoped Henson’s
manufacturer could provide. According to Henson and Milling,
the fixture was only generally described and no drawing of the
desired fixture
was shown to them by Thompson. JP27; JP32. It is their
further testimony that Thompson did not describe the material
or finish of the desired reflector to them. JP27; JP32.
Henson testified that upon return to his office, he
produced two drawings of a lighting fixture by cutting and
pasting stock lighting parts from catalogs of Hubbell
products. JP28. On cross-examination, Henson stated that he
personally came up with the idea of mounting or combining the
two existing products together. “I thumbed through the
catalog and I found this reflector. . . .” JP179. “So I
mated the two together,
pasted it up and sent that to George Brammer.” JP179. “What
I did was mate an existing product with an existing product. .
. .” JP186.
