The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania has awarded Lontex about $4.62 million in attorneys’ fees and $369,263 in expenses in a lawsuit with Nike. In addition, the jury in the case awarded damages for Nike’s infringement of the Lontex “cool compression” trademark on athletic wear. The judge raised the amount to $791,000.
According to Bloomberg Law, the judge also denied Lontex’s motion for a new trial to seek damages and a share of Nike’s profits from the sale of infringing products. Lontex appealed that decision to the Third Circuit on March 16.
Lontex is a brand of compression garments, with headquarters in Pennsylvania.
