To me, this would be the expected second step, for someone infringing on their trademark. Like if a person steals your car, then you confront them and try to strike a deal to prevent involvement of authorities. If you ignore that, I think it is reasonable to expect them to report you to the police, and you to get charged with theft.

- kube-system 9mo agoNo, asking a court for a large amount of damages from an LLC is not in any way similar to arson and murder.
- johnfn 9mo agoYou should say why that is rather than just leaving a short, dismissive comment.
- dghlsakjg 9mo agoI’m not GP, but I can take a crack: A case against a limited liability corporation for infringing on a trademark is not like murdering someone and burning down their house because no one ends up dead and no houses are burned down, and it is an appealable judgement made by a court based in legal precedent.

- kube-system 9mo ago1. murder and arson are crimes. 2. asking for a large amount of damages is how all lawsuits work. That doesn’t mean that amount will be awarded. 3. an LLC protects the owners personal assets from the judgement. The likely result is that they are forced to repaint the truck on their own dime, and waste a bunch of their company’s money. The worst case scenario is that Kelloggs takes the truck and the egg rolls that are in it. Nobody is dying in a fire. Nobody is paying anyone 15m dollars. Nobody is losing a house.
- NewsaHackO 9mo agoI don't think they expect to actually get 15M from this suit. Honestly, it seems like they wanted to avoid the suit altogether, because of how it looks from a PR POV.
