Intellectual Property Litigation: The Dilution Revision
November 6, 2006 Full PDF
Litigation partner Lew Clayton's "Intellectual Property Litigation" column in the November 6 edition of the National Law Journal, titled "The Dilution Revision," focuses on the implications of the new Trademark Dilution Revision Act of 2006, which clarifies a number of unsettled issues in federal trademark dilution law that have concerned trademark owners. Among other changes, the Act overrules the Supreme Court's Moseley decision, which had required that dilution plaintiffs show actual dilution, rather than simply the likelihood of dilution. Associate Rochelle Chodock assisted with the preparation of this article.
