Dispute Summary
The Delhi High Court granted interim relief to CNN, finding a prima facie case of trademark infringement and passing off against Cam News Network Limited. The court noted that CNN is the prior user and registered proprietor of the 'CNN' mark, which has acquired significant goodwill globally. Given the similarity in the news industry, the use of 'CNN' by the defendant on its magazine cover was deemed likely to cause confusion among the public, tipping the balance of convenience in favor of CNN.
