Lorillard Tobacco Co. v. Engida, 08-1037
In plaintiff's appeal from the district court's order granting attorney's fees to defendant under the Lanham Act's fee provision, 15 U.S.C. section 1117(a), and alternatively under section 13-17-102 of the Colorado Revised Statutes, the order is reversed where defendant was not a prevailing party because plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the case without prejudice and without a court order under Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(i).
