36. Plaintiffs incorporate by reference the allegations in the above paragraphs

as if fully set forth herein.

37. Defendants are advertising, marketing, promoting and/or producing

Unauthorized Stage Shows that incorporate unauthorized reproductions and/or copies

of the Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Properties, including, but not limited to, Queen Elsa,

K.

38. Defendants have never been authorized to advertise, market, promote,

and/or produce the Unauthorized Stage Shows, which incorporate the Plaintiffs’

Copyrighted Properties.

39. Defendants’ conduct, described above, infringes upon Plaintiffs’

Copyrighted Properties. Defendants had actual knowledge of Plaintiffs’ exclusive

rights. Each specific infringement of Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Properties can form the

basis for a separate claim against Defendants under the Copyright Act.

40. Upon information and belief, Defendants’ acted willfully and/or with

reckless disregard of Plaintiffs’ rights, and Defendants infringements have irreparably

harmed the Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Properties and threaten further infringement and

further irreparable harm to the Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Properties. As of November 9,

2015, Defendants continued to advertise, market, promote and/or produce the

Case 1:15-cv-24251-MGC Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 11/13/2015 Page 11 of 17

Page 12: Disney v. Cobi Latino - Frozen.pdf

12

Unauthorized Stage Shows. Further harm to Plaintiffs is imminent, and Plaintiffs are

without an adequate remedy at law with respect to such harm. Unless Defendants’ acts

are enjoined, it is highly probable that Defendants, or others under Defendants’

direction, will continue to advertise, market, promote and/or produce the

Unauthorized Stage Shows.

41. Defendants have obtained illicit profits as a result of their wrongful acts.

42. Plaintiffs are entitled to their damages and Defendants’ profits.

COUNT II - TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENT AND TRADEMARK COUNTERFEITING (15 U.S.C. §§ 1114 and 1116)

43. Plaintiffs incorporate by reference the allegations in the above paragraphs

as if fully set forth herein.

44. Plaintiffs are the owners of the exclusive rights to the DEI Trademarks and

are in full force and effect.

45. Plaintiffs, or those under their authority, manufacture and distribute all of

46. Notwithstanding Plaintiffs’ well-known and prior common law and

of Florida and in interstate commerce.

Case 1:15-cv-24251-MGC Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 11/13/2015 Page 12 of 17

Page 13: Disney v. Cobi Latino - Frozen.pdf

13

47. Defendants have advertised, marketed, promoted and/or produced the

Unauthorized Stage Shows utilizing Plaintiffs’ Trademarks without Plaintiffs’

authorization. Defendants’ unauthorized use of Plaintiffs’ Trademarks both in the State

of Florida and in interstate commerce has and will continue to cause a likelihood of

confusion, deception, and mistake as to Plaintiffs’ affiliation with Defendants.

48. Said acts of infringement will cause irreparable injury to Plaintiffs if

Defendants are not restrained by the Court from further violation of Plaintiffs’ rights, as

Plaintiffs have no adequate remedy at law.

49. Plaintiffs have suffered damages as a result of Defendants’ acts.

50. Defendants’ use in commerce of Plaintiffs’ Trademarks in conjunction

reckless disregard of Plaintiffs’ rights.

COUNT III - UNFAIR COMPETITION UNDER THE LANHAM ACT (15 U.S.C. § 1125)

as if fully set forth herein.

53. As a direct result of Plaintiffs’ longstanding use, sales, advertising, and

marketing, Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Properties and Trademarks have acquired a

secondary and distinctive meaning among the public who have come to identify

Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Properties and Trademarks with Plaintiffs and their affiliated

companies.

Case 1:15-cv-24251-MGC Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 11/13/2015 Page 13 of 17

Page 14: Disney v. Cobi Latino - Frozen.pdf

14

54. Defendants misappropriated Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Properties and

Trademarks in order to confuse the public into believing that their conduct was

authorized by the Plaintiffs.

55. Defendants, by misappropriating Plaintiffs’ Copyrighted Properties and

Trademarks in connection with the advertising, marketing, promoting, and/or

producing of the Unauthorized Stage Shows are misrepresenting and will continue to

misrepresent and falsely describe to the general public the origin and sponsorship of

their services.

56. Defendants have caused advertising for such services to enter into

interstate commerce willfully with full knowledge of the falsity of the designation of

their origin and description and representation in an effort to mislead the purchasing

public into believing that its services are authorized or emanate from Plaintiff.

57. These acts constitute a violation of Section 43 of the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C.

§ 1125.

58. Defendants have obtained gains, profits, and advantages as a result of its

unlawful acts.
