Creative Compounds Ordered To Pay For ForsLean® Trademark Infringement August 08, 2011- Sabinsa Corporation has been awarded damages for Creative Compound's ForsLean® trademark infringement by the US District Court of New Jersey. Creative Compounds was ordered to disgorge its profit of $139,388.40 from their sales of the infringing product and to pay those disgorged profits to Sabinsa.
On January 10, 2011, the US Supreme Court denied Creative Compounds' request to review the July 2010 decision of the Third Circuit Court in Sabinsa's favor. The Third Circuit ruled that Creative Compounds infringed Sabinsa's "Forslean" trademark because Creative Compounds created a likelihood of confusion between ForsLean and Creative Compounds' Forsthin, both of which refer to Coleus forskohlii extract.
