Dispute Summary
Michael Casey Enterprises Ltd. filed two suits alleging infringement of copyright and passing off against TVC Sky Shop and Asian Sky Shop. The plaintiffs claimed their health equipment design, 'AB KING PRO,' was protected by both a US patent/design registration and Indian copyright law. However, the court noted significant disputes regarding whether the functional drawings qualified as aesthetic copyrighted works or merely ornamental designs under the Designs Act. Ultimately, due to the plaintiffs' failure to appear despite applications for counsel discharge, the suits were dismissed in default.
