Edwardsville Pierogi Festival alleges tortious interference over trademark allegations made by Whiting Pierogi Fest

In order to keep operating under the “Pierogi Festival” name, the Edwardsville committee has filed a suit against the coordinators of the Whiting Pierogi Fest in the Middle District of Pennsylvania. A complaint filed by the Edwardsville Hometown Committee against the Whiting-Robertsdale Chamber of Commerce seeks a declaration that “there is no possibility of consumer confusion between the Edwardsville event and the suburban Chicago event.” The Edwardsville committee is also seeking relief for tortious interference. It alleges that the Whiting-Robertsdale chamber has willfully interfered in business relationships forged by the Edwardsville committee to finance the Edwardsville Pierogi Festival.
