U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 16-1069
U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Murphy and Kelly, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Trademarks. Plaintiff failed to prove BC willfully infringed
plaintiff's trademarks,and the district court erred in awarding damages,
an accounting for profits and attorneys' fees; the court also erred in
granting default judgment against BC's member-managers as plaintiff had
failed to show it was entitled to monetary remedies against BC. The
district court did not err in enjoining BC from using plaintiff's
trademark. Affirmed in part, reversed in part and remanded with directions
concerning the entry of an amended judgment.
