Englander v. Societe Anonyme De La Benedictine Distillerie
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit · Decided May 18, 1936
87 F.2d 1003; 1936 U.S. App. LEXIS 2846 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

Englander v. Societe Anonyme De La Benedictine Distillerie

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

This case involves the trade-mark rights to the manufacture of Benedictine, a well-known French liquer. The litigated cases over the right to that name will be found in many places in legal literature and call for no restatement here.

After careful examination of the proofs we are satisfied the court below committed no error in its decree enjoining the defendants from using the word “Benedictine” in the sale of their product.

So holding, the decree below is affirmed.
