Read full decision. Automatically generated summary:

In June 2017 the Federal Court released its judgment and reasons for judgment in an action for trademark and copyright infringement brought by the respondent in this Court, United Airlines, Inc., against the appellant, Dr. Jeremy Cooperstock (2017 FC 616). The Federal Court found that Dr. Cooperstock, the owner and operator of the website www.untied.com, had infringed United’s registered trademarks and copyright. It found that United was entitled to an injunction restraining Dr. Cooperstock’s use of United’s marks and copyrighted works, and retained jurisdiction to provide effective relief. It requested written submissions from the parties within 45 days as to both the nature and scope of the injunction to be issued and (if the parties were unable to settle the issue of costs) as to costs. Submissions were made on both issues. The decision on both remains under reserve.
