Case: Trademarks/Pleadings (10th Cir.)

The Tenth Circuit reversed the decision of the District of Colorado dismissing Ascent Classical Academies’ action against Ascent Classical Academy Charter Schools Inc. for infringement of the “Ascent Classical,” “Ascent Classical Academies,” and related marks. The appeals court found that the management contract between the parties regarding post-termination use of school names was ambiguous and its meaning can’t be resolved at the motion to dismiss stage.
