  • Sticky notes seem to be a part of everyday life. They are found in homes, classrooms and offices. You may be wondering…how did the sticky note come to be? Well here is the answer…According to Post-it®Brand’s website, Dr. Spencer Silver, a 3M scientist, developed a repositionable adhesive, but he didn’t know what to do with his discovery. It wasn’t until six years later that his colleague, Art Fry, thought of a use for the adhesive.

  • "Triumph" is the name of an electronic board game invented by Coleman and Burten which they had hoped to sell to Milton Bradley
  • so they modified the game and resubmitted it to Milton Bradley after signing new disclosure agreements.  Triumph again was rejected by Milton Bradley
  • one year later, appellants discovered that Milton Bradley was marketing a new electronic board game under the name of "Dark Tower".  Because appellants believed that Dark Tower contained significant structural and design similarities to Triumph, they brought this action for trade secret misappropriation.

  •  At the close of appellants' case, the fraud count was withdrawn, the court directed a verdict for Milton Bradley on the contract claim, and denied without prejudice Milton Bradley's motion for a directed verdict on the misappropriation counts.  After the lengthy trial was concluded, the jury returned a general verdict for Coleman and Burten in the amount of $737,058.10 for royalties based on the Dark Tower profits.  Milton Bradley moved for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, and the district court, after a meticulous survey of the cases, which it recognized posed a "surprisingly close question", set aside the verdict.  We share the court's view of the closeness of the question, but feel constrained to allow the verdict to stand.

  • William Wrigley Jr. was born in Philadelphia in 1862, at the height of the Civil War. His father, William, Sr., was a soap manufacturer, and as a little boy, young William carried a basket through the streets of Philadelphia, selling Wrigley's Scouring Soap. When he became a teenager, William took a full-time job as a soap salesman for his father. He had a talent for salesmanship, and he drove a horse and wagon from town to town, trying to convince stores to stock Wrigley's soap. William Wrigley Jr. struck out on his own in the spring of 1891 when he was 29 years old. He left Philadelphia for Chicago with just $32 in his pocket and a dream of running his own business. He also had boundless energy and a gift for seeing things from his customers' point of view.
