- concluding the period of delay ended upon issuance of the cease and desist demand where the defendant created a new magazine after receiving notice of the plaintiffs objection to the use
- finding that the magistrate judge did not clearly err by concluding that the similarity digit weighed in the mark owner’s favor because the infringing use was within the owner’s “‘natural zone of expansion’”
- explaining confusion as to sponsorship, affiliation, or connection applies when products or services are noncompeting
- requiring that defendant’s use of mark cause confusion
- noting that Fifth Circuit has adopted the approach in Rogers
- vacating and remanding when district court, in case con cerning “relatively sophisticated buyers,” rejected imposing limited injunctive relief of a disclaimer, noting that “[s]uch buyers are more likely to notice, read, and understand the import of any written disclaimers”
