The court decision affirms the right of Harout R to continue to design and sell its signature collections of diamond engagement and wedding rings. The Court also dismissed claims of copyright infringement and permitted the use of the "Harout R" name. Judge Sweet dismissed all state law claims for "false advertising." The Court found that, as of December 2010, Aghjayan (and Harout R) were free to sell to and solicit business from Ritani's customers, as the contract "placed no restrictions on Aghjayan's solicitation of potential customers." Ritani LLC is owned by Cantor Fitzgerald and the Julius Klein Group Company, a DTC De Beers sightholder.
"We are gratified that the judge has ruled favorably in this case as we have always maintained that the claim for an injunction was without merit and this court decision is proof of that," stated Harout Aghjayan, founder of Harout R. "Our position as a trusted source in the bridal jewellery industry today remains unchallenged and we look forward to offering our customers our finest bridal collections leading into this next holiday season."
Harout R will continue to provide its exclusive bridal diamond designs to authorized jewellery retailers across the country with the same commitment to innovation, uncompromising quality and craftsmanship that has been the trademark of the premier jewellery designer for over 25 years.
