MSK Highlighted in Law360 for Representation of Comet ML in Trademark Dispute with Perplexity AI
MSK was highlighted in the article, "Perplexity AI Settles TM Fight Over 'Comet' Name," published by Law360 on August 28, 2025.
The article reported that Perplexity AI and Comet ML have reached a settlement resolving their trademark dispute over the “Comet” name. The case arose after Perplexity announced the launch of its AI-powered search engine under the same name, prompting Comet ML to file suit asserting infringement, unfair competition, and unfair business practices. Under the settlement, all claims and counterclaims were dismissed, with each party bearing its own costs.
From the article...
"U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers issued a limited preliminary injunction in July that allowed Perplexity to launch the search engine but barred Perplexity from encroaching on other Comet ML market territory."
Comet ML is represented by Eleanor M. Lackman, Marissa B. Lewis, Elaine K. Kim, Constance Kang, and Skyler Terrebonne.
