Description

LOKEN, Circuit Judge. In this trademark infringement case, plaintiff Gilbert/Robinson, Inc. (""Gilbert""), the trademark owner, appeals a jury verdict awarding infringing defendants Carrie Beverage, Inc., and Carrie Beverage-Missouri, Inc. (collectively, ""Carrie""), $3.1 million in compensatory and punitive damages because of Gilbert's fraud on the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the ""PTO""). Carrie cross-appeals the district court's grant of a permanent injunction against continued infringement of Gilbert's trademark rights under state law. See Gilbert/Robinson, Inc. v. Carrie Beverage-Missouri, Inc., 758 F. Supp. 512, 520 (E.D. Mo. 1991). We conclude that Carrie failed to prove actionable fraud on the PTO and reverse the judgment entered upon the jury's verdict. On the cross appeal, we affirm.
