**[Pudgy Penguins Accused of Infringing Original Penguin Trademark Rights]** According to a report by Golden Finance, PEI Licensing, the company behind the clothing brand Original Penguin, has filed a lawsuit against the NFT project Pudgy Penguins, accusing it of trademark infringement, trademark dilution, and unfair competition. The case was filed on Wednesday in federal court in Florida, focusing on Pudgy Penguins' clothing products. The lawsuit alleges that the **"Penguin series trademarks" used by the project are confusingly similar to the plaintiff's trademarks.** PEI stated in the complaint: "The defendants, without authorization, have used and attempted to register various 'Penguin' text and graphic trademarks on clothing and related goods and services, which are confusingly similar to PEI's federally registered and well-known 'PENGUIN' and penguin graphic trademarks. This lawsuit is therefore initiated."
