U.S. Chamber of Commerce Joins in Asking Federal Circuit to Declare False Marking Statute Unconstitutional Under the Take Care Clause

On Tuesday, March 1, 2011, the United States Chamber of Commerce filed a brief as amicus curiea in FLFMC. LLC v. Wham-O, Inc. (Appeal No. 2011-1067) asking the Federal Circuit to declare the False Marking Statute (35 U.S.C. § 292) unconstitutional under the Take Care Clause. The Chamber brief is similar to the amicus brief of the Cato Institute filed in the Wham-O appeal the previous week . A copy of the Chamber's brief is available here: BRIEF OF AMICUS CURIAE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IN SUPPORT OF DEFENDANT-APPELLEE AND AFFIRMANCE.
