In this action, Plaintiff Autodesk, Inc. ("Autodesk") sued Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks Corp. ("SolidWorks"), asserting various claims of trademark infringement, false designation of origin, unfair competition, and false advertising. The operative complaint is the First Amended Complaint, filed January 23, 2009 (the "FAC"). SolidWorks filed an Answer and Counterclaims to the FAC, and as a second claim for relief, sought a declaration concerning the validity or ownership of the letter string "DWG." 2. The parties stipulate that the letter string "DWG" is a valid trademark owned by Autodesk for computer-aided design (CAD) software and related services, as alleged by Autodesk in the FAC. Based on that stipulation, the Court will enforce the stipulation between the parties without adjudicating the issue on the merits. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3.
