Before SOBELOFF, BRYAN and CRAVEN, Circuit Judges.
St. Elmo Hawkins has sued his former patent attorney, General Motors Corporation and Chrysler Corporation for misappropriation of an invention. The trial judge afforded plaintiff every opportunity to prove his allegations, but Hawkins was able to demonstrate neither the existence of a conspiracy nor actionable negligence on the part of the attorney.
