Federal Circuit Win for Dawgs Against Crocs
|
|
RJLF achieved a significant victory for Dawgs Footwear, produced by
Double
Diamond
Distribution Ltd., at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal
Circuit.
Crocs now
face allegations of violating federal false advertising laws by
misleadingly
claiming its shoes are made of "patented" materials, potentially
incurring
liability for hundreds of millions of dollars.

Ninth
Circuit Upholds RJLF's Victory
|
|
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit issued a landmark decision, with
en
banc denied in California Restaurant Association v. City of
Berkeley,
marking a significant victory for RJLF's client California Restaurant
Association.
Berkeley banned gas stoves. The Ninth Circuit overturned that ban, ruling that
it
violated federal law. This was a critical decision for the chefs and restaurant
owners
of the Association, who now can use a preferred energy source for their unique
cuisines.

RJLF
Triumphs Over Comic Giants
|
|
In October 2024, RJLF scored a major victory against Marvel and DC Comics by
persuading
the Patent and Trademark Office to cancel Marvel and DC's jointly-owned SUPER
HERO
trademarks. Working on behalf of independent comic creator S.J. Richold, the
firm
showed
how the two titans of the comic industry used a generic mark to bully
competitors
and
stifle competition. RJLF's work on this matter was featured in national news,
including
on Law.com, the World Trademark Review, and Law360, as well as in mainstream media outlets
like
Reuters, The Verge, and Gizmodo.

RJLF represented Barclays Bank in a legal case that
alleged several
major
global banks, including Barclays, conspired to suppress
gold prices
between
2004 and 2012 as members of The London Gold Fixing
Company. The case,
heard
in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New
York,
involved nearly $8 billion in potential damages.
Barclays, along with
Scotiabank and Société
Générale, reached a
settlement for an amount that totaled less than 1% of
the potential
damages.

Judge Orders Release of Detained Venezuelan Client
|
|
RJLF, in collaboration with The Legal Aid Society of New York,
represented
L.R.C.,
a
Venezuelan with no criminal record, in securing his release from
Brooklyn's
Metropolitan
Detention Center. In December 2025, Judge Donnelly (E.D.N.Y.)
ordered
L.R.C.
to be
freed
within 24 hours, along with the return of his personal property.
The court
also
ensured
he couldn't be detained again without due process.
