Summary
"Carter-Wallace decided an appeal from the district court's determination that the patent of the appellee, Carter-Wallace, for a pharmaceutical compound known as meprobamate was valid and infringed. The Carter-Wallace patent covered three organic compounds used as tranquilizers and in the treatment of muscle spasms. The patentee supported the claim of anti-convulsive properties by reference to tests conducted on mice and supported the claim of a paralyzing action by reference to pharmacological studies on unnamed animals."
