A jury on the King’s Bench awarded £98,550 damages, to-day, against the Austin Motor Car Sunshine-roof Patents, after a hearing lasting fourteen days, involving total costs estimated at £15,000. The Mechanical General Inventions Company and Edouard Lehwess sued Sir Herbert Austin and the Austin Motor Company, alleging that they used confidential information connected with their sunshine-roof design, in order to obtain a patent themselves, and committed a breach of agreement relating thereto. The jury found that there had been a breach of agreement.
