Shoe World, Inc. v. El Greco Leather Products Co.

How later courts describe this case

• holding that N.Y.Civ. Rights L. § 74 forbids liability for the publication of a “substantially accurate” report of any judicial proceeding, and this provision applies to an action for product disparagement
• refusing to assume jurisdiction over suit between two states, concluding that case was for exercise of original and exclusive jurisdiction by United States Supreme Court
• "The actual quality of the goods is irrelevant; it is the control of quality that a trademark holder is entitled to maintain”
• trademark infringement found where defendant violated contractual provision specifically barring any sale of product absent inspection
• in addition to clear proof of interdistrict violation and inter-district effect, it must be shown that interdistrict effects are current before interdistrict remedy may be invoked in a school segregation case
• reseller’s “sale of the shoes was sufficient ‘use’ for it to be liable for the results of such infringement and its claimed lack of knowledge of its suppliers’ infringement, even if true, provides no defense”
• awarding $2,000,000 for non-economic damages
