United States Eighth Circuit

In an action claiming that defendant breached the parties' trademark license agreement, and committed trademark infringement, judgment for plaintiff is affirmed where: 1) defendant's equitable defenses presented fact-bound inquiries that were properly submitted to the jury; 2) the jury properly found that defendant used the mark at issue for unlicensed purposes; and 3) the district court did not err when it determined that monetary relief was appropriate, were the jury to conclude that defendant willfully infringed the mark.
