Ninth Circuit Case on Gray Goods

Ninth Circuit decision on gray goods that, it can't help noting, are actually gray.  In this case the goods were manufactured by a licensee of the Canadian trademark owner, sold to a Canadian company, and then shipped to the U.S.  Additional elements make this a somewhat complex fact pattern.


American Circuit Breaker v. Oregon Breakers, 03-35375 (9th Cir.  April 25, 2005).
