Roemer  v.  Simon

APPEAL from the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of New Jersey.

On motion. The bill filed in this case was for an alleged infringement of letters-patent, No. 56,801, granted to the appellant, bearing date July 31, 1866, for improvements in travellingbags, and prayed for an account and an injunction.

Upon a final hearing, a decree was rendered at the March Term of said Circuit Court, 1874, dismissing the bill.

Mr. Thomas Marshall presented the petition and affidavit of the appellant, stating in substance that new and material evidence, previously unknown to him, had been discovered since the appeal herein. The affidavits of sundry persons, setting forth as well the nature of the evidence as the matters thereby established, were attached to the petition. He thereupon moved that leave be granted the appellant to give to the appellees the requisite notice of a further motion for a rule requiring them to show cause why this court should not remit the record to the court below for a rehearing of the cause.

MR. CHIEF JUSTICE WAITE delivered the opinion of the court.
