`2.
`
`Plaintiff Invisaflow is a limited liability company organized and

`
`4.
`
`Upon information and belief, until about 2012, Amerimax Home

`
`of Delaware, having a principal place of business at 303 Research Drive, Suite 400

`
`U.S.C. §§ 1331 and 1338(a).
`
`8.
`

`
`because, among other things, it has, directly or through intermediaries, committed
`
`acts within Georgia giving rise to this action and/or regularly does business,
`
`derives substantial revenues, and has established minimum contacts with Georgia
`
`such that the exercise of jurisdiction would not offend traditional notions of fair

`play and justice.

`
`

`
`Case 1:14-cv-03026-MHC Document 1 Filed 09/19/14 Page 4 of 9
`
`
`
`have maintained a regular and established place of business and are doing business
`
`in this judicial district, and have committed acts of infringement arising out of their
`
`contacts in and are causing injury to Plaintiff Invisaflow in this judicial district.
`
`Factual Background
`
`11. Plaintiff Invisaflow has been in business since 2008 manufacturing
`
`and selling innovative products in the drainage industry, including low-profile
`
`water emitting attachments.
`
`12. On October 15, 2013, United States Patent No. 8,556,195 (“the ‘195
`
`Patent”), entitled “Low Profile Attachment for Emitting Water,” was duly and
`
`legally issued to inventor Sloan Haynes, Jr. The ‘195 Patent has been duly and
`
`legally assigned to Plaintiff Invisaflow. A true and correct copy of the ‘195 Patent
`
`is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
`
`13. Plaintiff Invisaflow is the owner by assignment of the ‘195 Patent, and
`
`has the full and exclusive right to bring suit to enforce the ‘195 Patent, and recover
`
`for any and all infringement thereof.
`
`14. Upon information and belief, the Defendants have infringed the ‘195
`
`Patent by making, offering for sale, selling, importing, and/or using products in the
`
`United States that embody the patented inventions described and claimed in the
`
`‘195 Patent. Upon information and belief, these infringing products include, but
`
`are not limited to, the “Extend-A-Spout v2 Low Profile Drainage System” product
`
`

`
`

`
`Case 1:14-cv-03026-MHC Document 1 Filed 09/19/14 Page 5 of 9
`
`
`
`as
`
`marketed
`
`in
`
`various
`
`stores
`
`and
`
`online
`
`at
`
`http://www.amerimax.com/solutions/rainwater-diversion. Exhibit B.
`
`15. As a result of the infringement of the ‘195 Patent, Plaintiff Invisaflow
`
`has been damaged, will be further damaged, and is entitled to be compensated for
`
`such damages, pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 284, in an amount to be determined at trial,
`
`but no less than a reasonable royalty.
`
`16. Plaintiff Invisaflow contacted and met with the Defendants on June 3,
`
`2014 informing them of the ‘195 Patent and requested that the Defendants cease
`
`and desist from all manufacturing, marketing, distribution, uses, offers for sale, and
`
`sales of the “Extend-A-Spout” product. The Defendants have continued to
`
`manufacture, market, distribute, use, offer for sale, import, and/or sell the “Extend-
`
`A-Spout v2” product. Accordingly, the Defendants’ wrongful activities will
`
`continue unless enjoined by the Court.
`
`17. Upon information and belief, Defendants purposefully continued
`
`manufacturing, marketing, distribution, use, offers for sale, imports, and/or sales of
`
`the “Extend-A-Spout v2” product despite knowledge of the ‘195 Patent and despite
`
`an objectively high likelihood that their actions constituted infringement of one or
`
`more valid claims of the ‘195 Patent (as Defendants knew or should have known),
`
`warranting an award of increased damages, a finding of willful infringement, and
`
`a finding that this case is “exceptional” pursuant to 35 U.S.C. §§ 284 and 285.

`
`
`
`Count I – Defendants’ Infringement of U.S. Patent No. 8,556,195
`
`18. Plaintiff Invisaflow repeats and re-alleges
`
`the allegations of
`
`paragraphs 1 –17 above as if fully set forth herein.
`
`19. Upon information and belief, the Defendants have infringed and are
`
`continuing to infringe the ‘195 Patent, willfully and deliberately, by engaging in
`
`acts including making, selling, offering to sell, importing, and/or using products
`
`that embody the patented inventions described and claimed in the ‘195 Patent.
`
`Upon information and belief, these infringing products include, but are not limited
`
`to, the Extend-A-Spout v2 Low Profile Drainage System product.
`
`20. Upon information and belief, the Defendants will continue to infringe
`
`the ‘195 Patent unless and until enjoined by this Court. As a result of the
`
`Defendants’ infringing conduct, Plaintiff Invisaflow has suffered, and will continue
`
`to suffer, irreparable harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law. Plaintiff
`
`Invisaflow is entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against such
`
`infringement, under 35 U.S.C. § 283.
`
`21. Plaintiff Invisaflow gave Defendants notice of their infringement of
`
`the ‘195 Patent on June 3, 2014, but the Defendants have continued their
`
`infringement, in willful disregard of the ‘195 Patent and Plaintiff Invisaflow’s
`
`rights created thereunder. This is an exceptional case because of the Defendants’
`
`willful infringement.

`
`

`
`Case 1:14-cv-03026-MHC Document 1 Filed 09/19/14 Page 7 of 9
`
`
`
`22. As a result of the infringement of the ‘195 Patent, Plaintiff Invisaflow
`
`has been damaged, will be further damaged, and is entitled to be compensated for
`
`such damages, pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 284, in an amount to be determined at trial.
`
`23. The Defendants’ acts of infringement have been without an express or
`
`implied license by Plaintiff Invisaflow, and are in violation of the rights owned by
`
`Plaintiff Invisaflow.
`
`Demand for Jury Trial
`
`24. Plaintiff Invisaflow demands a trial by jury on all appropriate issues.
`
`Prayer for Relief
`
`WHEREFORE, upon final hearing or trial, Plaintiff Invisaflow prays for the
`
`following relief:
`
`(a) A judgment that the Defendants have infringed one or more
`
`claims of the ‘195 Patent;
`
`(b) A judgment and order permanently restraining and enjoining
`
`the Defendants, their directors, officers, employees, servants, agents,
`
`affiliates, subsidiaries, others controlled by them, and all persons in active
`
`concert or participation with them, from further infringing the ‘195 Patent;
`
`(c) A judgment and order requiring the Defendants to pay damages
`
`to Plaintiff Invisaflow adequate to compensate it for the Defendants’
`
`wrongful infringing acts, in accordance with 35 U.S.C. § 284;

`
`

`
`Case 1:14-cv-03026-MHC Document 1 Filed 09/19/14 Page 8 of 9
`
`
`
`(d) A judgment and order that Defendants’ infringement of the
`
`‘195 Patent has been deliberate and willful;
`
`(e) A judgment and order requiring the Defendants to pay to
`
`Plaintiff Invisaflow enhanced damages for Defendants’ willful infringement
`
`of the ‘195 Patent, up to three times the amount of compensatory damages
`
`against Defendants, and pre-judgment interest under 35 U.S.C. § 284, and
`
`post-judgment interest under 28 U.S.C. § 1961, on all damages awarded;
`
`(f) A finding in favor of Plaintiff Invisaflow that this is an
`
`exceptional case, under 35 U.S.C. § 285, and an award to Plaintiff
`
`Invisaflow of its costs, including its reasonable attorney fees and other
`
`expenses incurred in connection with this action; and
`
`(g)
`
`Such other costs and further relief as this Court may deem just
`
`and proper.
