Obama campaign wins partial victory in "O'' lawsuit

Posted: Updated:
WASHINGTON -

President Barack Obama's re-election campaign has won at least a partial victory against a website it said was selling counterfeit merchandise with the campaign's signature "O'' logo.

A judge in Washington has agreed to bar Washington-based Demstore.com from selling the T-shirts and buttons bearing the "O'' logo. But the judge wants more information from both sides on whether the website should also be barred from selling merchandise using the "O'' as part of the year 2012.

A lawyer for Demstore.com's owner argued the company shouldn't be barred from selling its goods, in part because of the campaign's delay in filing a lawsuit.
