SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 2 – Viahart based in Wills
Point, Texas believes that its
"Brain Flakes" brand is as
well known as Coca-Cola and
Nike. So it is
suing.
On
February 22 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Gregory H. Woods held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Judge Woods asked Viahart's
lawyer for the basis of
claiming this fame of Brain
Flakes.
The response
cited Amazon reviews, even
Pinterest posts.
Update of
February 24: to enlarge the
record, and to be responsive
as so many aren't, we noted
also "Brain Flakes' articles
in the Wall Street Journal and
New York Times."
Judge Woods
advised addressing it in
upcoming briefs. He declined
to stay discovery.
On December 2,
Judge Woods held another
proceeding in the case and
Inner City Press again covered
it. Now the talk was of an
amended complaint. Litigation
can be slow.
The case is
Viahart, LLC v. Creative Kids
Online, LLC et al., 20-cv-9943
(Woods)
