Description
FRIENDLY, Circuit Judge: In this action between two New York corporations in the District Court for the Southern District of New York, plaintiff CES Publishing Corp. (CES) alleged that since December, 1972, it had published a magazine entitled ""Consumer Electronics Monthly,"" which was distributed free of charge to manufacturers, distributors and dealers in the consumer electronics trade and which had generated substantial advertising revenues; that CES was privileged to use that title for its magazine by virtue of the registration of the trademark ""Consumer Electronics"" on the Supplemental Register of the Patent Office in 1967 by TV Digest, Inc., which had granted an exclusive license, now held by CES, to use the mark for a trade magazine to be entitled ""Consumer Electronics Monthly""; that during the latter part of 1974 defendant announced its intention to publish a magazine, ""Consumer Electronics Product News,"" also to be distributed free to the trade; and that this would violate CES' rights under the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1051 et seq., and § 368-d of the New York General Business Law and the New York law of unfair competition. Later CES moved for a preliminary injunction.
