35 U.S.C. § 289 — Additional remedy for infringement of design patent

Whoever, during a design patent's term, does either of the following without the owner's license: (1) applies the patented design, or anything that imitates it closely enough to be confused with it (a "colorable imitation"), to a manufactured article in order to sell it; or (2) sells or offers for sale a manufactured article that the design or its imitation has been applied to — is liable to the patent owner for the infringer's total profit from doing so, but never less than $250. The owner can recover this amount by suing in any United States district court that has jurisdiction over the parties. This section does not block, reduce, or interfere with any other remedy the owner of an infringed patent has under other parts of this title, but the owner cannot recover the same infringement profit twice.
