  • Summary

  • 1. Everyone hates blight. How a Danbury Judge dealt with an obstinate owner of blighted property --and what we can all learn from it. 2. A "sticky" story made here: how 2 competing adhesive manufacturers sued each other over one's allegedly untrue use of the phrase "Made in USA" in their marketing and packaging materials. The Federal Judge explained when a company can, and cannot, complain about a competitor's use of such claims – and when doing so violates the Lanham Act and the Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act. 3. With a nod to the Great American poet Robert Frost ("good fences make good neighbors"), a Stamford Judge resolves a lawsuit in which 2 neighbors sued each other over a stone wall --that they built together! 4. Finally: a new wrinkle on Contempt of Court: this time from the world of Family Law. A highly-experienced Judge finally had her fill of the parties using her Court to torture each other – and what she did about it to prevent the egregious over-use of Motions for Contempt.
