      Kimmy, have you seen the other thread? He is mentally sick. No joke. Everything he does is because of this illness. He most likely doesnt even realize it.

                Glad to see someone is capable of a little bit of thought. Registering a trademark is best, but you don't lose all your rights if you don't.

                  Just some info

                  What does copyright law not protect?

                  Several categories of material are generally not eligible for federal copyright protection. These include among others:

                  Works consisting entirely of information that is common property and containing no original authorship (for example: standard calendars, height and weight charts, tape measures and rulers, and lists or tables taken from public documents or other common sources)

                  Works that have not been fixed in a tangible form of expression (for example, choreographic works that have not been notated or recorded, or improvisational speeches or performances that have not been written or recorded)

                  Ideas, procedures, methods, systems, processes, concepts, principles, discoveries, or devices. For an idea or any of the above to receive protection it must be patented, not copyrighted.

                  Titles, names, short phrases, and slogans; familiar symbols or designs; mere variations of typographic ornamentation, lettering, or coloring. Many clients will ask us how to copyright a name? Unfortunately, the answer to how to copyright a name is that a name cannot be copyrighted. However, a company or product name can be protected by a trademark registration. See Registering A Trademark and Trademark FAQs for more information.

                          You had better start filing for it. BTW, have you heard the phrase vexatious litigant?

                                        Unless you actually have the trademark (which it sound like you don't), this is just a silly thread and a waste of time. You really don't know much about trademarks. That piece of paper is truly everything. Not to mention trademark classes and such. We've actually had real life experience with trademark cases and I don't think you have.

                                          With these latest threads from minusonebit I'm betting that JohnA is going to do more than just "threaten" a lawsuit

                                            Did he ever actually threaten a lawsuit? I thought he asked where papers could be served. Serving a C&D wouldn't be the same as filing a lawsuit.

                                                Add another one to the list:
                                                1) Epassporte lawsuit
                                                2)TMM lawsuit
                                                3)Trademark Lawsuit.

                                                I guess Albright doesn´t have too much to worry about since we are still waiting for the Epassporte lawsuit to happen.
                                                Maybe we´ll see something in 2010...

                                                  You can add to that the Federal Goverment of the United States.

                                                  "... I fully intend to see to it that the United States Government regrets its insane behavior in this matter.? said Keith Kimmel, who has holdings in The Liberty Dollar in the form of electronic currency as well as paper notes and is the lead editor of ICWT.

                                                  That's right, he's going to take on the Feds, too.

                                                              My view is that John has nothing to worry about. Trademark infringement actions are extremely expensive to take all the way to court. I doubt any attorney would undertake a case like this without a sizable chunk of change up front.
                                                              I have 3 trademarks relating to online entity's that took more than 6 months to obtain and cost around $600.00 each and that is for just 10 years, after which time you have to pay them more $$$..

                                                                  1. He's got proof of prior use.

                                                                  3. The trademarked term is for a product/service (this one is kind of a stretch).

And now 3 whole days after somebody else registers the domain you are filing a lawsuit.

The fact that you have registered several other domains but skipped over this one for the last two years is what is going to do your case in. Save yourself the postage on this one, Keith.

                                                                                                  The only way a judge could rule in your favor would be if you could somehow show that you were unaware of the steps that need be taken to register an available domain name. The fact that you have registered several other domains but skipped over this one for the last two years is what is going to do your case in. Save yourself the postage on this one
                                                                                                  That's just not true.

And I'm not really looking to give him legal advice, but the general advice I can give is that if you want to protect your name, file for a federal trademark. Don't try to stand on common law state trademark rights.

                                                                                                      The key to a federal trademark is knowing how to write the description. Your trademark is only as strong as the description.
