An earlier version of this article published by the New York Law Journal on July 3, improperly characterized the status of plaintiff’s trademarks, “Fight Sports” and “Fight Sports Network,” as being “KO’d” by the judges since they found the trademarks to be generic terms. Despite the recommendation provided by Judge Ramon E. Reyes, and adopted by Judge Ann Donnelly, that plaintiff’s preliminary injunction be denied after finding that the plaintiff’s trademarks are generic and not sufficiently used in commerce to warrant protection under the Lanham Act, both trademarks remain federally registered until there is a final adjudication of the merits of the underlying trademark infringement lawsuit between the parties.
Additionally, Doug Jacobs and Jim Genia were called as expert witnesses of the defendants and not the plaintiff as the story originally indicated.
