On May 26, 2021, United States District Judge Lorna G. Schofield (S.D.N.Y.) denied a preliminary injunction request from Plaintiffs Sure Fit Home Products, LLC, SF Home Décor, LLC, and Zahner Design Group, Ltd. (collectively, Plaintiffs ). Plaintiffs allege that Defendant Maytex Mills, Inc. ( Defendant ) infringes their design patent and trade dress by selling a hookless shower curtain.
Zahner Design Group, Ltd. ( Zahner ) is the owner of U.S. Design Patent No. 668,091 ( the D091 patent ), which claims a shower curtain with reinforcing rings containing a slit. The slit allows the curtain to be installed without having to remove already installed curtain rods. Zahner also owns two utility patents that cover a method of installing shower curtains having reinforcing rings containing a slit on a rod where the slits allow for installation without removing an installed curtain rod.
