NPNY: NPG Lawsuit
I am not a lawyer, but reading lawsuit at: http://ttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/v?pno=91171672pty=OPPeno=1 The company that is trying to get the Sole Trademark for NPG Music Club may not win. There argument is flawed. They argue that they own the trademark for Nature since 1978, and Paisley Park didn't start the NPG Music Club till 2003, but there publishing company Nature Publishing Group didn't start doing business till 1999. Paisley Park owns trademarks to NPG and New Power Generation since as early as 1991 and have been in business a lot longer under NPG Records. But then again I ain't a lawyer, I decided I liked fixing computers more so what do I know?!?!

are they located on park avenue? --- Andrew Stanger [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've walked past the NPG office before in New York and smiled when I've paused to look at the NPG logo circle on the front window.

Wonder if this has something 2 do with the site being in hiatus Jill Moderator: yup as Z stated earlier they can't do business under that name until the suit is settled -Derek Derek [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am not a lawyer, but reading lawsuit at: http://ttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/v?pno=91171672pty=OPPeno=1 The company that is trying to get the Sole Trademark for NPG Music Club may not win.

truebut still.

That is a case of brand recognition.

As is this one. No one in their right mind would confuse NPG Nature -- one of the leading scientific journals in the world -- with what NPGMC publishes/sells.
