Case 2:16-cv-00768-JRG-RSP Document 8 Filed 08/02/16 Page 12 of 26 PageID #: 210
50.
The vehicle-mounted coil spring and shock assembly in the Arrma Accused
Products embodies the patented design claimed by the ’886 Patent or a colorable imitation thereof. 51.

The Arrma Accused Products are covered by the ’886 Patent.
53.
Arrma has directly infringed and continues to infringe the ’886 Patent in violation
of 35 U.S.C. § 271(a) by, directly or through intermediaries and without Traxxas’ authority, making, using, selling, or offering to sell the Arrma Accused Products in the United States, or importing the Arrma Accused Products into the United States. 54.
