: Mr. Auslander,

: I have a entertainment event named Rumble Zone. We promote elimination boxing tournaments and extreme kickboxing tournaments. We were contacted by the attorney for the Toughman series yesterday. He said we should cease and desist from promoting our events because we were infringing on Toughman's Trademarks and Trade Dress.

: We are simply an entertainment event promoting certain combative sporting events. We do not utilize their name, words they use or even the same format. We are "similar", but we are not "deceivingly" similar.

: What are your thoughts if I may ask?

: Thanks - Tom Coleman

Dear Tom,

A review of the papers will make sense of the facts so that they can be properly dealt with.
