Current Intelligence

Weighing the parody factor in a trade mark infringement and dilution case

Simon Teng
US Attorney-at-Law, MD

Louis Vuitton Malletier S.A. v Haute Diggity Dog, LLC, No. 06-2267 (4th Cir. 13 November 2007)

On appeal, the Fourth Circuit affirmed the district court's decision that Haute Diggity Dog's (HDD) parody pet toys of famous brands was not likely to cause confusion with those of Louis Vuitton Malletier's (LVM) products. LVM's copyright, trade mark dilution, and other claims were also rejected.
