(United States Tenth Circuit) - In an action claiming trademark infringement,unfair competition, and cybersquatting, and summary judgment for defendant is affirmed where: 1) trademark infringement and unfair competition claims failed as plaintiff did not show that "Utah Lighthouse" was protectable,that defendant's use was in connection with any goods or services, and that defendant was likely to cause confusion among consumers as to the source of goods sold on its online bookstore; 2) defendant lacked a unfavorable faith intent to profit from the use of plaintiff's trademark in several domain names under the Anti-Cybersquatting Protection Act (ACPA); and 3) defendant's website met secure harbor conditions of the ACPA since it was a parody (humorous or ridiculous imitation).
