9th Circ. Overturns 'Pom' Trademark Ruling

Loeb & Loeb partner Douglas Masters is named as counsel for Pom Wonderful LLC in connection with the 9th Circuit’s decision to reverse a district court’s order denying a motion for a preliminary injunction in a trademark infringement action under the Lanham Act.

The 9th Circuit held that the district court abused its discretion in finding that Pom Wonderful was unlikely to demonstrate a likelihood of consumer confusion regarding defendants’ use of the word “pom” on their “pur pom” pomegranate-flavored drink.
