Trademark Infringement In The Wild

  • Resumen

  • In this podcast discussion, various trademark infringement cases are examined, each presenting unique elements and legal intricacies. The cases discussed include disputes between the Pike Place Fish Market and the Pike Place Market Authority over the usage of the name "Pike Place Market" in a lease agreement, Rolls-Royce's legal action against HexClad for marketing its cookware products as "the Rolls-Royce of pans," Trader Joe's lawsuit against a labor union called Trader Joe's United for logo and merchandise similarities, and a trademark dispute between Skittles and the cannabis company Turpogs, which used a mark resembling "Skittles."The discussion starts with a Michigan-based client's trademark dispute involving a cannabis company, leading to a demand letter. The potential for licensing the trademark to the cannabis company is considered, but the client opts against it due to concerns about being associated with cannabis. The hosts also speculate about the possibility of larger companies, like Skittles, licensing their brands to cannabis products in the future.The conversation shifts to a case involving Fyre TV, an older streaming service compared to Amazon's Fire TV, resulting in a "reverse confusion" scenario where Amazon's brand overshadows the original mark holder. The hosts emphasize the risks and complexities of trademark law, suggesting that Amazon should have settled the case sooner.Subsequently, the podcast delves into a case involving the Isley Brothers, a band with a history of trademark disputes, where two brothers are suing each other over trademark ownership, highlighting the common issue of intra-band conflicts regarding trademark rights.Lastly, the hosts touch on a Michigan lawsuit concerning the denial of a state trademark registration due to a matching business entity name. They express their belief that this denial is inconsistent with traditional trademark law, as registering a business entity does not constitute a use in commerce, which is a fundamental element of trademark law. They express interest in discussing this case further in a future podcast episode with an attorney handling it. Overall, the podcast provides insights into the complexities and challenges inherent in trademark law through the examination of these diverse cases."May It Please The Internet" is brought by Revision Legal.
