District Court, N.D. Illinois May 30, 1996, No. 93 C 3200 (Zip Dee, Inc. v. Dometic Corp.)

MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

SHADUR, Senior District Judge.

During this action’s three-year life (by sheer chance this opinion has been dictated on its third anniversary, though it is being transcribed a few days later), the proceedings have been marked by extraordinary bitterness. Even more regrettably, the obvious bad blood between the parties has extended to their counsel as well.
