Heading: The Menu Layout

Text: 26 The district court also concluded that Papanicolaou was in violation of a third provision of the injunction, which prohibits him from: 27 Using any layout, design or arrangement with respect to its in-house, take-out, or catering menus, ... that infringes upon JFD's proprietary rights and interests in its Trade Dress or that is likely to create consumer confusion or mistake as to any connection or association between Roxy's and JFD. 28 The district court found substantial similarity between the takeout menu used by Roxy's prior to July 2000 and the Jerry's Deli menu protected by the injunction order. Papanicolaou admits that there are some similarities between the two menus, but argues that the primary font-style of his menu makes it obvious that the Roxy's menu is different from the Jerry's Deli menu, and therefore consumer confusion is unlikely. 29 A comparison of the two menus does not convince us that the differences are so obvious or that the district court was off base in its conclusion. Both menus are designed to be folded lengthwise into thirds, resulting in a menu size of 4.5 × 14.5. A hungry patron beholding both folded menus would see the circular logo of each restaurant in the top third of the front of the menu, and the words Delicatessen, Restaurant, and Bakery in the center. The back panel of both menus feature the phrase Good Morning! BREAKFAST SERVED ALL DAY AND NIGHT at the very top. On both menus, Good Morning! is written in script and the word Breakfast appears in a larger type size. The many items offered by both Jerry's Deli and Roxy's Deli cascade down the panels of their takeout menus in small print organized into two columns. Although it is true that the Roxy's Deli menu uses a different font to list these items, the menus nevertheless remain similar enough to support the district court's finding. 30
