Two Jinn, Inc. v. Gov't Payment Serv., Inc.
Annotate this CaseAladdin, a licensed bail agent, sought to enjoin GPS from engaging in bail agent activities in violation of state licensing and regulatory requirements. The superior court dismissed Aladdin’s claim for false advertising under the federal Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. 1125(a) and granted a defense motion for summary judgment on claims alleging violations of California’s Unfair Competition Law, Business and Professions Code 17200. The court of appeal affirmed, holding that Aladdin lacked standing to maintain a UCL claim; undisputed evidence showed that the commercial activities of GPS associated with its processing of credit or debit card transactions for cash bail payments do not require GPS to obtain a bail bond license, so that GPS is not in violation of the UCL; and Aladdin’s complaint failed to state a Lanham Act claim, as a matter of law.
