Tight Jeans And Blonde Hair

We were instructed to attend the World Championship Quarter Horse Show and investigate a company that was potentially selling a horse trailer with a latch that infringed our client's patent. The offending trailer latch was advertised as appealing to women with long fingernails. We sent our resident "dumb blonde" in a pair of tight jeans, cowboy boots to Oklahoma and had her visit the horse trailer displays with her hands glittering with fake fingernails. She determined that the company in question was not "able to get into the horse show" but had a sales office with horse trailers on display less than one mile from the championships. Our investigator visited the target company and was given a demonstration of the trailer latch's functionality which included a black plastic rectangle in the wall of the trailer, into which one can reach on the right, pull it out, and the left side dips into the trailer wall and releases the divider from a groove in the trailer wall. We asked other specific questions requested by our client regarding the horse trailer and latch, collected business materials and photographs, saddled up and went on our way. Done deal.
