Laughing Rabbit Settles One Western District Trademark Suit; Files Another

Oregon speciality lighting manufacturer Laughing Rabbit has been busy with trademark issues up here in Seattle. It settled its differences with defendant UView Ultraviolet Systems Inc. over UView’s allegedly infringing use of FREEDOM in connection with flashlights, and on Feb. 26 filed a Notice of Voluntary Dismissal withdrawing those claims.

The very next day, it filed a trademark infringement suit against Photon Light Boards, Inc., alleging that defendant’s PHOTON-branded illuminated skateboards (depicted above) are likely to confuse consumers with Laughing Rabbit’s use of PHOTON in connection with microlights, penknives, and headlamps.

The case cites are Laughing Rabbit, Inc. v. Uview Ultraviolet Systems, Inc., No. 08-1637 (W.D. Wash.), and Laughing Rabbit, Inc. v. Photon Light Boards, Inc., No. 09-264 (W.D. Wash.).
