Lol, "within 5 days". Some people are so very unreasonable... nor does it massively sound like they know what they're talking about. 5 days appears to be a little too short imo, wouldn't most of these kind of things be measured by the week/month or is this just scare tactics.
Can I send a cease and desist that says minus 10 seconds? (meaning they've already failed to comply with it :D )
- ajg1977 17y agoFrankly I thought the tone of "hey, we need to ask you to stop" was a refreshing and reasonable change from the usual threats and bluster to be found in most C&D letters. Whether they have a valid claim or not would be for a lawyer to decide, but if they do have a registered trademark for Magnolia that relates to computer/internet services they're in pretty good shape.
- sdrinf 17y agoIs this the case, where they're forced to send out C&Ds, or risk having their trademark lost? (such as happened with Google: http://209.85.135.132/search?q=cache:UCKy7KCtdhQJ:xooglers.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html+site:xooglers.blogspot.com/&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk http://209.85.135.132/search?q=cache:UCKy7KCtdhQJ:xooglers.b... )
- ajg1977 17y agoYes. If you do not defend a trademark you run the risk of having it deemed abandoned, after which people can use it freely or even re-register it for themselves.
