The South Butt Answer to the North Face
My favorite parts:
- Describing the defendant as a "cherubic teenager" who "may have turned 19 years of age, while he looks 14, and to some, acts 12".
- "the consuming public is well aware of the difference between a face and a butt"
- "Despite [the company's adventurous image] Plaintiff's products are perceived as being consumed by those who have little to no interest in living an adventurous lifestyle, but, rather, are interested in acquiring Plaintiff's products for the status and/or notoriety they receive from being seen in Plaintiff's expensive apparel and accessories." ... "Defendants recognized this bizarre phenomenon."

OK - that's hilarious. You'll have to give us an update when some ruling is made. I hope the judge will have as much good humor.
Hah, I'll keep an eye out. I hope the judge does have a sense of humor, but also takes the claims seriously. A judge in California was just censured for ordering that the attorneys in a class action suit be paid the $140,000 they earned in $10 gift cards to the store they sued, which is of course, what each of the classmembers got: a $10 giftcard to spend at the very store they sued. Frankly I like that plan, but the ethics committee did not.
