In Ocean Spray Cranberries Inc. v. Decas Cranberry Products Inc., Decas Cranberry Products Inc. filed a counterclaim in a patent infringement suit brought against it by Ocean Spray Cranberries Inc., alleging that Ocean Spray’s patent infringement suit was filed in “bad faith” in order to 1) scare away firms interested in purchasing Decas; and 2) to discount Decas’ asking price by driving down demand for the company in order for Ocean Spray to purchase the company for the lower asking price, and thereby illegally corner the market on dried cranberry products.
