Back in December, U.S. District Court Judge A. Howard Matz said Clint Arthur's action against Louis Vuitton "appears to be a misguided lawsuit."
In April, a California state court judge dismissed a similar suit, calling it a "prime example" of "opportuntistic litigation."
Yesterday Matz decided that appearances can be deceiving and denied Louis Vuitton's motion to dismiss. The LAT's Mike Boehm has the details.
