Description
The Greyhound Corporation and its subsidiary, Atlantic Greyhound Corporation, sought an injunction against J. Mitchell Goberna, Havana Greyound Tours, Inc., and Cuban Greyhound Tours, Inc., to prevent their use of the name "Greyhound" in connection with the transportation and tour business. After hearing the evidence, the court entered findings of fact and conclusions of law, and held that the defendants were not entitled to use of the name "Greyhound" as applied to the bus transportation business; but that "by virtue of being prior users of the name Greyhound in the Cuban tour business" they were entitled to continue their use of the name in such business; and that plaintiffs, by acquiescing in the use of the name by the defendants, and by accepting certain benefits derived from the sale of Havana Greyhound Tours, were estopped from enjoining the defendants use of the name in the Cuban tour business. The plaintiffs have appealed, contending that the court erred in holding that they were estopped and that the defendants were entitled to continue using the name "Greyhound" in connection with the Havana and Cuban tour business.
