Amazon.com, Inc. v. Barnesandnoble.com, Inc.

United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit

239 F.3d. 1343 (2001)

Intellectual Property
Relevant factsFree

Amazon (plaintiff) obtained a preliminary injunction against Barnes & Noble (defendant) for allegedly infringing its one-click ordering patent, but BN presented prior-art evidence — including the CompuServe Trend system and the Web Basket cookie-based ordering system — suggesting the underlying technology already existed in the public domain before Amazon's patent issued.

IssueFree

Whether the existence of prior art that either anticipates a patent's claims or renders them obvious raises substantial questions about the patent's validity.
