Lawyers for Yves Saint Laurent made a
federal court of appeals deadline to file its response in the Christian
Louboutin red-sole trademark appeal before yearend.
The YSL attorneys filed their appellate brief on Tuesday.
The dispute began in April, when Louboutin sued YSL in a New York federal court in Manhattan, claiming that YSL’s red pump violated its red-sole trademark. In August, the presiding judge denied Louboutin’s request for a preliminary injunction and instead questioned the validity of the trademark, which Louboutin obtained in 2008.
