Appellate ruling upheld for Forcina Law client in trade-name dispute

Elio Forcina appeared for respondent 145 Atlantic LLC in La Magica LLC v 145 Atl. LLC. On October 12, 2017, New York’s Appellate Division, First Department, unanimously affirmed orders denying the opposing party’s application for a preliminary injunction and its motion to renew in a dispute concerning claimed trade-name rights. This was a favorable appellate result concerning interim orders. The published decision does not establish a final judgment resolving every claim, trade-name ownership or a damages award. Citation: 154 AD3d 515; 2017 NY Slip Op 07205. The official decision identifies Forcina Law and Elio Forcina as counsel for the respondent. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each matter depends on its own facts and law.
