Wonderland Switzerland AG v Evenflo Company (Fed. Cir., December 17, 2025) 2023-2043

Randy Noranbrock Season 1 Episode 66

This episode is about an Opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit regarding a patent infringement case between Wonderland Switzerland AG and Evenflo Company, Inc. The central conflict involves Evenflo appealing a district court's judgment that its convertible car seats infringed upon two of Wonderland's patents, the '043 and '951 patents, which cover car seat technology. The Court of Appeals affirmed-in-part, reversed-in-part, vacated-in-part, and remanded the case, notably finding that no reasonable jury could find Evenflo's 4-in-1 seats infringed the '043 patent and reversing a permanent injunction against Evenflo for both patents due to lack of support for irreparable harm. Additionally, the court reversed the denial of a new trial on willful infringement for the '043 patent concerning Evenflo's 3-in-1 seats, arguing the district court improperly excluded probative evidence of Evenflo's subjective intent. Circuit Judge Reyna wrote an opinion concurring-in-part and dissenting-in-part, disagreeing with the majority's decision to reverse the denial of a new trial on willful infringement.
