Gonzalez issues a preliminary injunction prohibiting a New Jersey-based pizzeria from using the litigant’s trademarked “Bravo Pizza” and “Bravo Kosher Pizza” names or anything similar that might cause consumer confusion. The litigant granted the defendant use of the names for its pizzeria under a licensing agreement, but later terminated the arrangement when it discovered they were using the name for a separate bagel shop. However, after the court issued a temporary restraining order, the defendant changed their name to “Ravo Pizza,” which the court clearly saw as a ruse. The court finds the litigant establishes that it will suffer irreparable harm due to the defendant’s bad faith actions. The court further compels them to arbitrate the remaining claims under the agreement.
