When Matt Murdock calls him to try to settle out of court a dispute with his employee Wilbur Day who claims he stole his patent for a new type of hydraulic lift, Carl Kaxton refuses and tells him to go ahead and sue him. Next day, he confronts Day at Murdock's office, claiming he invented the device himself, and threatens to ruin both his ex-employee and the attorney's careers. Then later, he finds Murdock and Day on his property and is knocked out by Day who steals a Molecular Condenser from his lab. Kaxton once more visits Murdock at his office, accusing Murdock and Day of intrusion and theft, but decides to forget the whole thing when the attorney announces that his client withdrew the charges.
