Trademark managementThe whole truth and nothing but the truth

The consequences of an applicant or
registrant making a material
misrepresentation of fact before the US
Patent and Trademark Office that it knew or
should have known was false or misleading
can be severe. If proven, the application
or registration will be deemed void in its
entirety. Thus, a clear understanding of
both how to avoid a claim of fraud and
how to deal with potentially problematic
applications or registrations is imperative
for any trademark professional
