Overstock.com sues ApparelOverstock.com for Trademark Infringement

Quote:Click on an advertising link and what you get looks a lot like Overstock.com. The site's layout, colors and menus all seem genuine.

This is not the real Overstock, but an alleged upstart calling itself Apparel Overstock.com. And the real Overstock is suing to put the purported e-commerce usurper out of business.

In its six-count, U.S. District Court complaint, the original Internet closeout retailer demands that defendants Product Logic Inc. and company president, secretary and treasurer Anthony J. DiDomenico cease business as Apparel Overstock.com.

The real Overstock, which has levied charges ranging from trademark infringement and false advertising to unfair competition and cybersquatting, also seeks $100,000 in statutory damages. It asks that punitive damages be determined at trial.
