Understand the latest cases of trademark fraud and how best to successfully challenge fraudulent filings.
Many inaccurate or fraudulent trademark applications are filed, among the thousands of applications made each year. Such filings may infringe upon or block the registration of legitimate trademarks, resulting in businesses being damaged because they cannot effectively market their products and services. This topic will teach lawyers and businesspeople to recognize trademark fraud and to identify its elements and defenses. It will explain how evidence of fraud can be used in registration and cancelation proceedings to void registration of fraudulent applications and registrations. Review concrete examples of the types of false statements that constitute fraud and the types that will be excused as mistakes or technical defects. This material will also examine the latest cases of trademark fraud and prepare trademark practitioners to successfully challenge fraudulent filings.
