Fantastic Sams and Regis Settle Western District Trademark Dispute

By Michael Atkins

Last May, Fantastic Sams Franchise Corporation filed a trademark infringement case in the Western District against Regis Corporation. It alleged that Regis converted several Seattle-area FANTASTIC SAMS salons into its own HAIRMASTER salons and caused a likelihood of consumer confusion when it failed to remove all of the FANTASTIC SAMS trademarks from the premises.

On May 29, the parties filed a Stipulation and Order of Dismissal dismissing with prejudice all claims and counterclaims against each other.

The case cite is Fantastic Sams Franchise Corp. v. Regis Corp., No 08-706 (W.D. Wash.).
