The appeal, filed on July 21, 2017, asks that all relief awarded to Playboy be vacated and that a new trial be granted to CirTran Beverage and Play Beverages on each of their claims.

CirTran Beverage and Play Beverages brought the lawsuit against Playboy in 2012 seeking to enforce contractual and related rights to manufacture and market a line of energy drinks using the Playboy trademarks.

Iehab J. Hawatmeh, president of CirTran Beverage, said that veteran trial lawyer Todd C. Jacobs from litigation boutique Bradley Riley Jacobs PC of Chicago has been retained in the appeal."

“CirTran Beverage and Play Beverages were extremely disappointed by the outcome in the trial court,” Mr. Hawatmeh said. “However, we believe in the justice system and that our rights will ultimately be vindicated on appeal and at a retrial of this matter.”
