NY Judge Rejects ‘Simply Astonishing’ Bid to Delay Patent Trial

A New York federal judge on Wednesday rejected a last-minute request from Dynamic Marketing and The WowLine to modify or postpone a patent infringement trial. The jury trial, concerning claims over Wallet Ninja multi-tools, is scheduled to commence on Monday.

Indicating her irritation, the judge issued a stern warning to the companies, indicating that further attempts at “gamesmanship” would not be tolerated and could potentially lead to sanctions.

The implications of this order are significant for the defendants. It underscores the judiciary’s intolerance for any attempts to unduly influence or manipulate the legal process.
