Case  Analysis

Burger King,  the national franchise, is banned from opening a restaurant   within 20 miles of  Mattoon, Illinois. So, there is not a Burger King there; no   problem, right? Not  so fast! In the late 1950s, Gene and Betty Hoots   trademarked the iconic name.  Well, they trademarked it in Illinois at least.   When the national company  decided to open a chain close by, the Hoots sued and   won their case. However,  the national chain was able to keep the name Burger   King, but the Hoots were  also able to keep the name in accordance with the   stipulation that the national  chain could not open a store within a 20-mile   radius of the original store in  Mattoon, Illinois.

In a minimum  of 500 words, explain the reasons why this decision was made,   and discuss the  significance of this case in U.S. trademark law   jurisprudence.
