   PER CURIAM.

This case is a sequel to North Branch Products, Inc. v. Fisher, 109 U.S.App.D.C. 182, 284 F.2d 611 (1960), cert. denied, 365 U.S. 827, 81 S.Ct. 713, 5 L.Ed.2d 705 (1961). After our remand, the case came to trial in the District Court, and resulted in a judgment against Fisher, requiring him to assign certain patents to the plaintiff corporation. This appeal followed.

Appellant makes a number of contentions. Inter alia,, he urges that the District Court lacked jurisdiction. But this was decided against appellant in our earlier decision, cited above, and will not be reopened now. He also attacks the findings of fact of the District Court as clearly erroneous. They do not appear so to us. Nor do the conclusions of law appear in error. The judgment of the District Court will accordingly be

Affirmed.
