in this case, there has not been misappropriation because Phillips has not done the needful in the first instance. The two ground in which Phillips has not done the needful to protect his invention are these
1.Philip had not patented his tree stand,a patent right is a right or special privilege granted to an investor who had applied for it to protect such inventor intellectual work and to enable him benefit from the proceed of the invention for a given period of time.such a right confer monopoly on the patentee in the sense that, the patent so granted will enable the individual alone to use the design for a specific number of years no other individual or company will be allowed to use the design as long as the patent is in operation.
2.Philip did not require the investors to sign NDAs, which is known as non disclosure agreement which is an agreement signed between two individuals or companies in order to ensure that the information contained in the agreement do not get to the third parties. It is also used to ensure that the trade secret between two individuals or companies is protected from leaking out.
