Alt Legal Webinar Cultural Currents: Top trademark and copyright issues from 2023
Alt Legal Team | November 01, 2023
This year has been another exciting, high-profile year for the trademark world. Top celebrities and brands—from Lizzo to Aaron Judge and from Jack Daniels to Hermès—have been testing their trademark might. Key cases have redefined the parameters of intellectual property protection and have revolved around everything from the reach of the Lanham Act to the role of parody. Join us on December 14 at 4:00pm (ET) for a webinar where Lombard, Geliebter & Cohen partner Sarah Cohen will walk you through the top trademark decisions of 2023 and provide an overview of what to watch for in 2024, too. In particular, she’ll discuss:
- Parody, free speech, and trademarks
- Extraterritoriality findings in Abitron v. Hetronic
- Proving and preventing genericide
- Protecting celebrity catchphrases
Everyone who’s registered for this webinar will receive an email with a link to the recording.
