United States First Circuit

In appeal of preliminary injunction granted in trademark infringement dispute, the grant of injunction limiting defendant's use of the Swarovski name in its advertising to a much smaller font size is reversed and remanded, where the district court did not include the necessary findings on: 1) whether Swarovski was likely to succeed in its infringement claim against defendant by establishing that the proposed advertisement was likely to confuse consumers; and 2) whether Swarovski would suffer irreparable harm as a result of the ad.
