Trademark name sales

[jberryhill]

Was the complainant required to pay the defendant's attorney fees after the Telepathy case was dismissed?

No.

you will almost never see a company go after A

There is problem a big difference between "what happens most of the time" and "what I see come across my desk".

People don't call me to say, "Everything's going fine."

And, yes, actnow, that plaintiff was monumentally silly.

No.

No consequences for the plaintiff, but substantial cost to the defendants?

Doesn't that suggest a possible motive for making a frivolous complaint?

John,
Thank you again for your advice. I have a final question that I would like to pose to you. If a person has sold a few names with trademarks in them, what do you recommend that they do? Should they try to buy them back and let them drop/cancel the registration? Please give advice that could help the forum.

The answers to that really are: a) do so at your own risk, or b) don't get into
it at all.

Besides, you'd have to retain John to give you solid legal advice. :-D

This is starting to sound less like a hypothetical.

John, I don't think any question here is ever hypothetical

Speaking of hypothetical:

I have this friend..... lol
