#registered trademark

[putschki1969]

hello, we heard that when keiko leaves kalafina she tried to have the ownership of Kalafina trademark. did she succeed ?

Hello there, anon!

Short answer: No, she did not succeed.

Back in 2018, I covered this topic extensively. Be sure to check out my tag #registered trademark to find all my posts on it. Please be aware that many of the links contained in my posts do no longer work due to various changes on the patent website. That's no problem though since we can still check out the details of Keiko's trademark application on the Japan Platform for Patent Information.

Under "Trademark Number Search", you can enter the ID of Keiko's application which is as follows: 2017-170294

You can find the record history when you click on "Details"

As you can see here, Keiko (or rather her legal representative) withdrew the application shortly after that initial refusal (the reasons for the refusal are not entirely clear unfortunately). Please note that this was by no means a final notice of refusal so the application was still under examination. Keiko and her legal advisors could possibly have dealt with it by making a few adjustments to their application or by bringing forth some further information. The fact that they abandoned the application rather quickly might indicate that they had a weak case, meaning that any objections on their part could have proven to be in vain. The general assumption was that Space Craft had most likely established some rights (albeit unregistered) to "Kalafina" by long-term and legitimate use of the mark. Of course that wouldn't have made it impossible for Keiko to obtain registered trademark rights but it would have certainly made it more difficult and costly. But honestly, we have no way of knowing what happened exactly so with this lack of facts it’s pretty useless to speculate...

Hope this was at least a tiny bit helpful. As mentioned above, I would also recommend going through all of my old posts on the matter.

Australia’s Best Reptiles ® Snakebusters® are Australia's best reptiles!® ... Yes it is official!In a rare move, the Australian government has given Snakebusters the trademark “Australia’s best reptiles” for pretty much everything in the reptile business.The trademarks office confirmed that the Snake Man Raymond Hoser and his company Snakebusters were Australia's best reptile educators in schools, parties, events and elsewhere and did the best snake handling courses, school wildlife incursions, mobile reptile displays and similar.In order to get this coveted trademark, Snakebusters were able to show that:1 – They were measureably and quantifiably better than all others.2 – Prove other providers, educators, reptile experts and the public unanimously agreed that Snakebusters were superior to anyone else in the reptile/wildlife industry.3 – Confirm Snakebusters had better expertise, safety, courses, teaching, entertainment and education outcomes.In registering the trademark, the government has given Snakebusters a legally enforceable exclusive right to claim being “The best” in the Australian reptile education, teaching, courses, entertainment, displays, conservation and breeding industries.The trademark is significant as a breach of it by an inferior company or person isn’t just a breach of trademark laws, but also a criminal offence under the Federal Trade Practices Act.This trademark gives the Australian public legal protection in that if they see an advert for “Australia’s best reptiles”, that is what they will get.

Trademark renewal: what is it?

The process of extending a registered trademark's legal protection and validity is referred to as trademark renewal.  For the business startup  trademark is a distinctive sign, such as a logo, symbol, phrase, or combination thereof, that is used to identify and distinguish the goods or services of one company from those of others. Once a trademark is registered with the appropriate trademark office, it typically grants the owner exclusive rights to use the mark in relation to the specified goods or services for a certain period.

Registered trademarks are usually valid for a specific duration, which can vary from country to country but is typically around 10 years. To maintain the trademark rights beyond the initial registration period, the trademark owner must file for renewal before the expiry date. The renewal process involves submitting the necessary documents, paying the renewal fees, and complying with any specific requirements set by the trademark office for the business startup.

By renewing a trademark, the owner ensures that the mark remains protected and retains its legal rights, including the ability to prevent others from using similar marks in connection with similar goods or services. Failure to renew a  registered trademark for business startup result in its expiration and potential loss of legal protection, allowing others to use similar marks without consequences.

It's important to note that the renewal requirements and procedures can vary depending on the jurisdiction where the trademark is registered. It is advisable for trademark owners to stay informed about the renewal deadlines and fulfill the necessary obligations to maintain their trademark rights. Consulting with a trademark attorney or seeking guidance from the respective trademark office can provide accurate and up-to-date information regarding the renewal process.

Benefits of Indian Trademark Renewal

Defence Against Repetitive Lawsuits

Renewal of trademarks can offer continuous protection without the risk of litigation. It guarantees that nobody else has the authority to assert ownership of a trademark and forbids others from doing so.

Rights of Ownership are Expanded

Through trademark renewal, one can acquire protection from infringement of rights to a brand name. After each renewal, the trademark's exclusive rights are extended for an additional ten years, giving the brand and its built-up goodwill permanent protection.

Security for Brand Name

Interruption-free and ongoing brand name protection is ensured by renewing a trademark. The brand's legal protection will expire if the renewal is not completed on time.

Financial Returns

A trademark owner has the right to assign or license their mark to a third party only in exchange for money. This indicates that one can make money from a trademark by charging others to use it.

It's so frustrating watching people incorrectly (and very confidently) talk about things you know well.

I'm watching CinnamonToastKen's To Catch A Predator reactions and like... Some of the predators are like, "It's not illegal to fantasize."

You're right. FANTASY is completely legal (doesn't make it acceptable). It gets ILLEGAL when REAL-life people (children) get involved. Through pictures, videos, etc. When you SHOW UP AT THAT HOUSE, it shows a CLEAR intent to do SOMETHING... They are aware they are talking to a minor (decoy) and make the decision to meet this minor.
