Angel Flight of Georgia, Inc. v. Angel Flight Southwest

We AFFIRM the district court’s ruling in its entirety. The district court did not err in ruling (1) AFSE infringed AFGA’s common law trademark rights by using the mark in a manner that created a substantial risk of confusion; and (2) AFGA had not acquiesced to AFSE’s infringing use and was not estopped by laches from enforcing its common law rights in the mark. Similarly, the injunction entered by the district court, which was tailored to protect AFGA’s rights and ensure the public would not be confused, was properly entered. Finally, the district court did not clearly err by cancelling United States Trademark No. 1,491,541 on the ground the registration had been obtained through fraud.
