The Seattle Intellectual Property American Inn of Court has been awarded the Achieving Excellence Platinum designation for the 2021-2022 Inn year. We also celebrated another wonderful year of meetings by finally hosting an in-person year-end social aboard a boat cruise around the Puget Sound!
This month’s presentation was “Failure to Function or Failure of Logic: Practical Suggestions for Overcoming Refusals,” with special guest lecturer John Sommer, General Counsel for Stussy, Inc. Mr. Sommer discussed some of his prior cases with the USPTO’s TTAB and discussed various current trends with Trademark law.
This Month, the presenting group provided mock direct and cross-examinations, various tips and tricks, and the Inn heard from a special guest lecturer, Hon. Matthew Williams, King County Superior Court; offering his insights into online trials.
