Hess finds that the lower court properly dismissed the raw ingredient supplier's suit alleging the defendant company threatened its customers with legal action over their use of the supplier's "NitroRocket," a specially engineered extract of arugula designed for sports nutrition, which allegedly infringed on the defendant's rights.
