Groupon Defeats Trademark Challenge–Groupion v. Groupon
19 05 2012By Eric Goldman
Groupion, LLC v. Groupon, Inc., 2012 WL 1655728 (N.D. Cal. May 8, 2012).
Groupion makes CRM software. Groupon is the leading online daily deals provider. A year ago, Groupion sued Groupon for trademark infringement. Last Fall, the judge denied Groupion’s preliminary injunction request, signalling that Groupon could win with a summary judgment motion. Groupon followed through with the motion, which the judge granted, easily rejecting all of Groupion’s contentions. The judge also rejected Groupion’s cancellation request and independently ruled that Groupion wouldn’t be entitled to monetary relief even if it won.
