Czarnik v. Illumina Inc.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Czarnik v. Illumina Inc., 437 F. Supp. 2d 252 (D. Del. 2006), was a United States patent law case heard before the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. In its ruling, the district court was the first court to hold that reputational harm could be sufficient to establish standing in an action for correction of named inventor under 35 U.S.C. § 256.[1] That ruling led to a split among district courts that has yet to be definitively resolved.[2]
