Summary Introduction
Case summary:The company BFB, Inc. manufactures and sells alcoholic beverages. It authorized the company RB as the distributor of its products. The company RB applied for registration of the logo before the NYSLA. The authority rejected the application because the logo was not appropriate to be displayed in grocery stores where it would be exposed to children. The application was filed before the federal district court for an injunction against the order. The appeal was rejected, so the appeal was made before the U.S. Court of Appeal for Second Circuit. The injunction order was passed and the logo registration was allowed to the company BFB.
To Find: The person whose interests are advanced by putting a ban on a certain type of advertisement.

In an effort to raise the level of professionalism in advertising and foster public confidence, Advertising Standards Canada (ASC), an industry body form in the 1960s, developed the Canadian Code of Advertising Standards. The code goes far beyond inaccurate or misleading ads, and addresses advertisements that target children, contain violence, play fears, or offend public decency. The voluntary code of conduct is widely adopted by advertisers, advertising agencies, and the media. A dispute resolution process is also available to resolve consumer and competitor complaints.
