HBC Attorneys Obtain $300,000 Judgment In Toys 'R' Us Trademark Litigation

 

HBC attorneys Bill MeyerChris Ford and Justin Konrad recently obtained a $300,000 judgment for a client in a trademark case against Toys “R” Us in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado.  They represented Katherine Dines, an award-winning children’s songwriter, recording and teaching artist who, since the early 1990s, has performed and sold children’s music throughout the world under the Hunk-Ta-Bunk-Ta® brand.  In 2012, Ms. Dines learned that Toys “R” Us was advertising children’s products under the brand “Hunk Ta Bunk Ta.”    After more than a year of intense litigation based on copyright infringement and related state law claims, Toys “R” Us agreed to the entry of a judgment against it for $300,000.
