Banilla's Suit Alleges Fusion Group's Willful Infringement of Banilla's FUSION and BANILLA GAMES Trademarks
GREENVILLE, N.C., Aug. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, August 20, 2024, Banilla Games filed suit against Fusion Group Games, alleging infringement of Banilla's intellectual property ("IP"). Specifically, Banilla alleges that Fusion Group Games is intentionally and willfully infringing Banilla's statutory and common law rights in and to its FUSION and BANILLA GAMES trademarks. Banilla is seeking, among other remedies, a permanent injunction, actual damages, Fusion Group's profits, punitive and enhanced damages, attorneys' fees, and costs.
Last month, Banilla attempted to resolve this dispute without court intervention, sending Fusion Group Games a cease-and-desist letter regarding Fusion Group's unauthorized use and infringement of Banilla's IP. Fusion Group's lack of a meaningful response suggested to Banilla that Fusion Group did not take seriously its infringement of Banilla's IP. Left with little other option, Banilla filed suit.
