March 9, 2021 On Monday in the Northern District of Georgia, Any Test Franchising filed a complaint against Diagnostics Pathology Consultants and two individuals, alleging trademark infringement and breach of the parties’ franchise agreement.
Any Test Franchising provides services for drug, medical, and pregnancy testing, operating more than 180 franchises across the country. It holds U.S. Trademark Nos. 3588117, 4789954, and 5907637, all covering the Any Lab Test Now franchise logo. According to the complaint, the plaintiff has used the first two trademarks-in-suit for more than a decade and the third since 2018.
The plaintiff and the defendants entered into a franchise agreement in July 2010 that gave the defendants the right to operate an Any Lab Test Now franchise until July 2020, when they would no longer be able to use the trademarks-in-suit, according to the complaint.
