HomeTask Obtains Preliminary Injunction Against Former Franchisee
On Oct. 16, Western District Judge Ricardo Martinez awarded franchisor HomeTask Handyman Services, Inc., a preliminary injunction against its former franchisee, Paul Szewczyk, based on Mr. Szewczyk’s covenant not to compete. The court, however, denied HomeTask’s motion to the extent it was based on claims of trademark infringement, dilution, and false designation of origin. Since my firm is involved in the case, that’s all I’ll say.
The case cite is HomeTask Handyman Services, Inc. v. Szewczyk, No. 07-1283 (W.D. Wash.).
