You purchased a patented juicer. May you sell it to another or would such be an act of infringement? Discus and identify the names of any doctrines or principles that govern your answer.
What will be an ideal response?
You may sell the juicer to another without committing an act of infringement. Under the first sale doctrine, once the patent owner (in this case, the maker of the juicer) unconditionally sells the patented item, the buyer has the right to sell it or use it as desired. The first authorized sale of the item "exhausts" the patentee's rights to control the purchaser's use of the item.
