Court Blocks Uber from Using Trademark in Parts of Florida

Uber has been blocked from using its name in certain parts of Florida after a district court granted an injunction to an events company of the same name. Florida-based Uber Promotions, a company that offers both transport and photography services, was granted its injunction against the taxi app, after the US District Court for the Northern District of Florida partially backed its trademark infringement complaint.
