New design patent case in the D. Mass:

Ocean Shore Properties brings two design patent claims against Google; both should fail as a matter of law. https://design-law.tumblr.com/post/706242761773481984/a-company-called-ocean-shore-properties-has-filed

Remember, a design patent covers the shape that is claimed, not the larger design concept. So here, the claim covers a slim, disk-like electronic device--not any round electronic device.
