How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that co-owners of the mark with equal and unfettered rights of use cannot sue each other for trademark infringement
- finding that former members of a band and co-owners of a trademark were barred from stating a trademark infringement claim against co-owners of the trademark who had “equal and unfettered rights of use” when both USPTO records reflect co-ownership of the trademark
- “Because co-owners are naturally associated with the same source . . . use by a co-owner cannot create confusion as to the source among customers”
