Spalding Supported

A U.S. District Court judge denied a motion by Callaway Golf Co. to prevent Evenflo & Spalding Holding Corp.’s Spalding Sports Worldwide Inc. from selling golf balls in packaging that uses Callaway Golf’s name.

After a 1-hour hearing, federal district court Judge Alicemarie Stotler dismissed Callaway’s lawsuit that sought a temporary injunction to prevent Spalding from shipping the Top-Flite Ball/Club System C golf ball, which it says is designed to match Callaway’s clubs.
