    IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT _________________________ No. 94-30055 _________________________ PEACHES ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION Plaintiff/Appellant/Cross-Appellee. versus ENTERTAINMENT REPERTOIRE ASSOCIATES, INC. Defendant/Appellee/Cross-Appellant. ____________________________________________________ Appeal from United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana __________________________________________________ August 16, 1995 Before HIGGINBOTHAM, SMITH and STEWART, Circuit Judges. CARL E. STEWART, Circuit Judge: Peaches Entertainment Corporation ("PEC"), owner of the federally registered service mark PEACHES, appeals the district court's judgment, which held that Entertainment Repertoire Association, Inc. ("ERA"), retained limited, exclusive rights to use a similar mark within stores in two parishes in Louisiana and advertise in five more. ERA appeals the district court's holding that limited future store expansion to the two parishes where it had operated stores. For the following reasons, the judgment of the district court is affirmed in part, modified, and remanded with directions. BACKGROUND Peaches Entertainment Corporation, a retail music and video chain, operates twenty-one locations in six states. It is the owner of the federally registered service mark PEACHES for "retail tape and record services," the mark having been registered by a corporate predecessor, Lishon's Inc. ("Lishon's"),1 on July 6, 1976. Lishon's began using the mark in commerce in relation to music stores sometime in 1974. Likewise, ERA owns a retail music and video store in New Orleans, Louisiana, which does business under the trade name PEACHES.2 ERA first began to use the name PEACHES and a related graphic service mark in August 1975, when it opened stores in both Orleans and Jefferson Parish.

  • Dr. Daddy-O and Poppa Stoppa
    Dr. Daddy-O and Poppa Stoppa Born in 1911, Vernon Lloyd Winslow was the first African-American radio announcer in New Orleans and was a professor at Dillard University (with a masters degree in education from Tulane). Although obits in both the Times-Picayune and The Advocate in 1993 state that Winslow was born and raised in Chicago, a 1986 interview and U.S. census records indicate that he was from Dayton, Ohio. Winslow, whose radio stage name was “Doctor Daddy-O”, graduated from the University of Chicago and the Chicago Art Institute. He also attended Morehouse College. He came to New Orleans in the 1940s to teach art at Dillard University, but a series of ambitious moves on his part propelled him into a whole different creative arena. Vernon L. Winslow, aka Dr. Daddy-O It was the late 1940s when Vernon Winslow wrote letters to three New Orleans radio stations, WJBW, WWL and WJMR, thinking to himself, “Why can’t I be an announcer?” He got a call from Station WJMR and was asked to come in for an interview. He was asked if he could write a radio program, and the person with the station was impressed with Winslow’s ability to not only script shows but to come up with rhymed couplets in the hip dialect of black nightlife. That would be ideal for the types of rhythm and blues shows the station wanted to broadcast, featuring records such as Roy Brown’s “Good Rockin’ Tonight” that was recorded in New Orleans in 1947. Unfortunately, though light-skinned, Winslow was still the wrong race for a radio announcer in the South at that time and place.

  • Written Statement of Kevin J. Martin Chairman Federal Communications
    Written Statement of Kevin J. Martin Chairman Federal Communications Commission Hearing on Communications in a Disaster Before the Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation United States Senate September 22, 2005 INTRODUCTION Good Morning Chairman Stevens, Chairman Inouye and members of the Committee. I appreciate the opportunity to be with you today. As we all know, Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast. People lost their homes, their businesses, and even their lives. Our hearts go out to all of the survivors who are now struggling with putting their lives back together. My statement focuses on the effects of the hurricane on the nation’s communications infrastructure. First, I will briefly discuss the immediate impact on communications services in the area and provide a status report on the extent to which services have been restored. Second, I will describe the steps the Federal Communications Commission has taken both to facilitate the restoration of service and to provide support for evacuees. Finally, I will offer some initial lessons learned from this terrible tragedy. IMPACT ON COMMUNICATIONS INFRASTRUCTURE The destruction to the facilities of the communications companies in the region, and therefore the services upon which citizens rely, was extraordinary. More than three million customer telephone lines were knocked down in the Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama area. Significant damage was inflicted both on the wireline switching centers that route calls and on the lines used to connect buildings and customers to the network. Thirty-eight 9-1-1 call centers went down. Local wireless networks also sustained considerable damage with more than one thousand cell sites out of service.

Sixty-four percent of Louisianan voters voted in favor of Amendment Two and a majority of voters in all but three parishes voted to bring back 12-0 verdicts.
