June 16, 2011 Opinion or Order Filing 223 ORDER - Plaintiff's Complaint lists six counts, three of which (Counts I, II, and VI) have recently been dismissed. [Dkt. 222.] The three remaining claims (Counts III-V) arise under the Lanham Act and a common-law claim for unfair competition that is grounded in a prohibition against trademark misappropriation, which Plaintiff argues bars EA from using the Dillinger name in its games. [Dkt. 1 at 10-11.] Presently before the Court are the parties' cross-motions for summary judgment on EA's First Amendment defense to its use of the Dillinger name. [Dkt. 85; dkt. 144.] For the reasons detailed herein, the Court GRANTS EA's Motion for Summary Judgment on its First Amendment Defense with respect to all remaining claims, [dkt. 85], and further DENIES Plaintiff's Cross-Motion regarding the same, [dkt. 144]. Judgment shall enter accordingly. Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 6/16/2011. (LBK)

It is also granted with respect to Count III only to the extent that Count III alleges violations of state law. In all other respects, the motion is denied.

EA's motion for a continuance to respond to Plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment, [dkt. 171], is DENIED AS MOOT. EA's motion to enjoin certain state court proceedings that might interfere with the Court's ability to resolve Count I, styled as its Motion to Enjoin State Court Action Dillinger, LLC v. Thompson, [dkt. 186], is DENIED AS MOOT, and the Plaintiff's motion for leave to file a surreply to that motion, [dkt. 213], is likewise DENIED AS MOOT.
