The beautiful game has transformed into something far more complex than 22 players chasing a ball. Today's football exists as a sophisticated intellectual property ecosystem worth billions, where legal battles off the pitch often carry stakes as high as championship finals.From broadcasting rights that form the financial lifeblood of leagues worldwide to domain name disputes protecting women's tournaments, this episode takes you behind the scenes of football's invisible legal infrastructure. We explore landmark cases including Spain's €31.6 million judgment against streaming platform Roja Directa, the surprising $40 million award to the inventors of referee's vanishing spray, and Manchester United's curious lawsuit against Football Manager for using their name but not their logo.The player perspective receives special attention through cases involving Messi, Neymar, and Ronaldo's fights to control their own names as valuable commercial assets. We also examine Project Red Card's groundbreaking challenge to the uncompensated commercialization of player performance data – potentially reshaping how personal statistics are treated across all sports.Whether you're fascinated by sports business, intellectual property, or simply curious about the legal machinery powering the world's favorite sport, this episode delivers five essential takeaways that extend far beyond football. Discover why exclusivity isn't about ego but economics, how small innovations can yield massive legal victories, and why your name is only truly yours if you claim it through proper legal channels.

Kinsella on Liberty Podcast: Episode 466. https://youtu.be/JAwxQTrPDII Re .@NSKinsella has proposed a number of patent reforms if we decide as a society not to abolish the patent system. This is, in my view, a more plausible way forward (politically) instead of demanding the abolition of patents.https://t.co/q3a0U2HQJ6 In this annotated extract, I… https://t.co/Jm36N2kjxa pic.twitter.com/Fs1caiVven — Sanjeev Sabhlok (@sabhlok) June 4, 2025 Sabhlok's markup of my proposals: See How to Improve Patent, Copyright, and Trademark Law and “Reducing the Cost of IP Law,” Mises Daily (2010).

And FDA and Patent Reform: A Modest Proposal *** From my Mises blog post a year ago: How to Improve Patent, Copyright, and Trademark Law Archived comments (below) January 13, 2010 by Stephan Kinsella As I note in my article “Radical Patent Reform Is Not on the Way,” Mises Daily (Oct. 1, 2009), there is a growing clamor for reform of patent (and copyright) law, due to the increasingly obvious injustices resulting from these intellectual property (IP) laws. However, the various recent proposals for reform merely tinker with details and leave the essential features of the patent system intact. Patent scope, terms, and penalties would still be essentially the same. In the second article of this two-part series, “Reducing the Cost of IP Law,” Mises Daily, published today, I propose various reforms to the existing patent system–short of abolition–that would significantly reduce the costs and harm imposed by the patent system while not appreciably, or as significantly, reducing the innovation incentives and other purported benefits of the patent system. I list these changes below in generally descending order of importance, without elaboration, as they are discussed further in “Reducing the Cost of IP Law”: Patent Law Reduce the Patent Term Remove Patent Injunctions/Provide Compulsory Royalties Add a Royalty Cap/Safe Harbor Reduce the Scope of Patentable Subject Matter Provide for Prior-Use and Independent-Inventor Defenses Instantly Publish All Patent Applications Eliminate Enhanced Damages Add a Working/Reduction to Practice Requirement1 Provide for Advisory Opinion Panels Losing Patentee Pays Expand Right to Seek Declaratory Judgments Exclude IP from Trade Negotiations [update: add a fair-use defense2 reinvogorate the reverse doctrine of equivalents defense ] Other Changes Increase the threshold for obtaining a patent Increase patent filing fees to make it more difficult to obtain a patent Make it easier to challenge a patent's validity at all stages Require patent applicants to specify exactly what part of their claimed invention is new and what part is “old” (e.g., by the use of European-style “characterized in that “claims) Require patent applicants to do a search and provide an analysis showing why their claimed invention is new and nonobvious (patent attorneys really hate this one) Limit the number of claims Limit the number of continuation applications Remove the presumption of validity that issued patents enjoy—e.g. a utility model or “petty patent” system, in which patent applications are examined only minimally and receive narrower protection; this type of IP right is already available in some countries) (( Reducing the Cost of IP Law; Tabarrok's Launching ...

You cannot get a design patent or a trademark registered for something that is considered "functional" -- but here's the tricky part: what counts as "functional" depends on whether you're talking about trademark law or patent law. Kason Industries Inc. recently learned this the hard way when it was denied trademark registration, but received a design patent for its same metal leg product. Learn why the difference in the definition of "functional" can make your break your ability to get a trademark registered or a design patent issued.   Connect with Adam Diament E-mail: adiament@nolanheimann.com   Website: https://www.nolanheimann.com/legal-team/adam-diament   Phone/Text: (424)281-0162   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5cTADZzJfPoyQMjnW-rtRw Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/trademarkpatentlaw/   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-diament-j-d-ph-d-180a005/   Amazon Book Page: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B005SV2RZC/allbooks?ingress=0&visitId=831aff71-513b-4158-ad73-386ede491e93

In Vidal v. Elster (the “Trump Too Small” case), the Supreme Court unanimously upheld a federal limitation on registering trademarks that include other people’s names. All the Justices agreed that, though the limitation was content-based, it didn’t need to be judged under strict scrutiny. But behind this unanimity was a major rift about whether the Court should decide these matters by focusing on history and tradition, or should instead build on more recent precedents such as those dealing with “limited public forums.” Which is the better approach – and which is the one most likely to gain majority support in the future?Featuring:Prof. Barbara Lauriat, Associate Professor of Law & Dean’s Scholar in Intellectual Property, Texas Tech University School of LawProf. Lisa Ramsey, Professor of Law, University of San Diego School of LawProf. Eugene Volokh, Gary T.

Fundamentals of Trademark Law Introduction to Trademark Law: In this lecture, we will explore the essentials of trademark law, an important aspect of intellectual property that protects symbols, names, and slogans used by businesses to identify their goods or services. We'll cover the fundamentals of trademarks, the registration process, the criteria for protection, and the legal ramifications of trademark infringement. What is a Trademark? A trademark is a sign capable of distinguishing the goods or services of one enterprise from those of other enterprises. Trademarks are protected by intellectual property rights and can include words, logos, symbols, or a combination of these. The primary function of a trademark is to identify the source of a product or service, guaranteeing its quality and helping to advertise it. Types of Trademarks: Standard Trademarks: These include words, phrases, symbols, or designs that identify and distinguish the source of the goods of one party from those of others. Service Marks: Similar to trademarks but used to identify and distinguish the services of one provider from those of others. Collective Marks: Used by members of a cooperative, association, or other collective group to indicate membership in the group. Certification Marks: Indicate that the goods or services bearing the mark meet a certain standard of quality or origin. Trademark Registration Process: Registration of a trademark grants the owner exclusive rights and is a legal recognition of the trademark's association with a particular product or service. The process involves: Search: Before applying, it is advisable to search the trademark database to ensure that no identical or similar marks are already registered. Application: Submit an application to the appropriate national or regional trademark office. Examination: The trademark office examines the application to ensure it meets all the legal requirements. Publication: If the application is accepted, the mark is published to allow any third parties to oppose the registration. Registration: If there are no oppositions, or if oppositions are resolved in favor of the applicant, the trademark is registered. Trademark Infringement and Defenses: Trademark infringement occurs when another party uses a mark that is identical or confusingly similar to a registered trademark on competing or related goods and services. Defenses against trademark infringement might include: Non-commercial use: Usage that is not considered commercial may fall outside the scope of infringement. Nominative fair use: When the use of the trademark is necessary to describe another product or service, or to compare it to the trademarked item. Lack of likelihood of confusion: Showing that there is no realistic likelihood that consumers will confuse the two marks. Legal Remedies for Trademark Infringement: Legal remedies available to a trademark owner in the case of infringement can include injunctions to stop the infringement, monetary damages, and in some cases, the recovery of profits made from the unlawful use of the trademark. International Trademark Law: Trademarks are territorial and must be registered in each country where protection is sought. International treaties such as the Madrid System allow for the filing of a single application to register a trademark in multiple countries. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/support

Welcome to episode 201 of the Grow Your Law Firm podcast, hosted by Ken Hardison. In this episode, Ken sits down with Ashley Johnson, Founder of Dogwood Patent and Trademark Law to discuss the importance of safeguarding your law firm's identity.  Using My Two Passions in One Law Firm. Prior to becoming a patent attorney, I completed undergraduate degrees in Chemistry and Biochemistry, as well as a Masters Degree in Biochemistry from North Carolina State University. After law school, I chose to practice patent law because of the technical background that it required. Practicing patent law allows me to combine my love of technology with assisting inventors and new businesses to create products that are helping improve the world. There was one major struggle I faced when I worked for the larger law firm, and it was the personal touch that I felt like I needed to provide my clients but lacked the time. I chose to start my own patent law firm in 2019 after 17 years of practicing law because I wanted to be able to help my clients in a one-on-one setting where they can get the insight and guidance that they need. As the founder of Dogwood Patent and Trademark Law, it has been so rewarding to help small businesses and startups at each step of the patent process. Our clients come from a variety of backgrounds, from medical devices and engineering design to green technology and consumer products.     What you'll learn about in this episode: Learn about Ashley Johnson and her company How Trademarks can protect your Firm's brand Why you should use Trademarks Discover the value of utilizing Trademarks Learn why you need to regularly monitor your brand   Resources:  https://www.facebook.com/DogwoodPatentandTrademark https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashley-johnson-patent-attorney-raleigh-nc/ www.dogwood-law.com   Additional Resources:  https://www.pilmma.org/the-mastermind-effect https://www.pilmma.org/resources https://www.pilmma.org/mastermind

A legal expert has concluded Nadene Lomu may not be able to stop a documentary being made about her late husband. Jonah Lomu's widow has written a cease-and-desist letter to the New Zealand Film Commission over a proposed documentary about the deceased rugby star. Nadene Lomu said she had trademarked and owned the intellectual property for 'all and anything' related to Jonah. AJ Park litigation principal Thomas Huthwaite says Nadene Lomu won't be able to prevent an independent story from being told. "On the other hand, if she's looking to prevent the use of the name Jonah Lomu as a trademark or in any other way that suggest authorisation- then she might have an argument for that."

On this episode, as it my trend, I get to know Jonathan’s teenage years in an industrial UK town and we made a parallelism of the Fab Four from Liverpool. We embarked on his different journeys throughout Academia and Finland and much more. Currently, Jonathan has been blessed being domiciled on Valencia with a wonderful Mediterranean weather and we talked on the unedited version about Fallas, Mascletá, and Ninots. This part is on Patreon. You can follow Jonathan Parkin on his website: https://www.jonathanrossparkin.com/ and on his Instagram @Jonathan_parkin and on @zk_duo. El Arte de la Fe composed by Javier Salvador is the intro music to this episode and we closed with I remember you composed by Juan Erena.

After almost six years of having Tariq at my podcast on Episode 6, he returned and this time this recording sounds much better thanks to all the upgrades I have made on my equipment. Having Tariq at my podcast is not only a privilege but an honor. He is not only a great guitar performer, but a very humble person. We talked about sad events during pandemic, his new composition, Spirit (that I recommend strongly to listen to), his Legnani Caprices recordings, music education, and much more. There are no words to express Tariq how much I appreciate the time he took from his commitments to sit with me and chat like to old friends. The first track you listened to, is Legnani Caprices 21, 4, 17; and the last one is Legnani Caprices 33, 3, 36.

This is the second episode of 2023 and we are on the third week of January. Two known musicians have passed away and, I bet, many unknown great musicians too. Time, as an abstract concept and, at the same time, is also a continuum of events that will keep occurring on all living entities. We may say that time is infinite, but we could not say the same of our existence. Therefore, is it time a tangible notion to keep track of our existence? Or, as a McTaggart once said, there is no such thing as time. You may ask why I bring the topic of time, because with my guest we travel to different times and discuss the wonderful era of Tin Pan Alley to nowadays technology and how much influence it has in our life. The first song you listened is Empty Kettle and last one is Media Luna. I hope you could enjoy both songs and Christopher entire repertoire. Christopher Davis-Shannon is not only a ukelele performer, but he is Ukelele’s Preacher. His video attest to my opinion. As his website states: His books include technique studies ranging from baroque campanella to adaption of clawhammer banjo, as well as rhythmic studies on George Formby. Therefore, you will be listening to a musician whose passion for this wonderful instrument is infinite and is not shaped in a straight line but in one line with different branches that will take you on different spins throughout this conversation. You can follow Christopher on the following website and social media platforms: https://www.thetinman.co/ https://www.patreon.com/cdavisshannon Twitter: @cdavisshannon Instagram: @cdavisshannon YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Banjoleletinman The music included in this episode are protected under US Copyright Act and its arrangements/ownership/proprietorship belongs to Christopher Davis Shannon.

I cannot believe we are almost on the end of 2022. On this past week we lost two stardoms: Christine McVie from Fleetwood Mac and Kristy Alley from Cheers sitcom. Definitely, 2022 still keeping more surprises under its sleeves. On today’s episode, I hope you like “fanfare” recording that I downloaded (licensed free of course) and added to this episode. At last, I have an English episode and what a great way to have it with Kristina Avila. Kristina heritage is Mexican and she grew up in Brownsville, Texas, at the other side of Rio Grande. She moved to Austin to pursue her dreams and what a perfect way of pursuing that being a classical composer. I will say no more, I do not want to give any spoilers.

There was a time when resellers ruled the Amazon Marketplace, but today's Amazon is about brands. Without Brand Registry, you cannot defend your brand or reach your full Amazon potential.In this episode, Jason and Shannon interview Scott Harders of Fisher Broyles about Trademarks, Amazon Brand Registry, and Amazon's IP Accelerator program that allows brand owners to get trademarks faster (as well as some things to watch out for and avoid).Scott is funny, knowledgeable, and experienced and is here to break down Trademark Law for us in a way that we can all understand.Trademark rights are established to protect the consuming public and give them confidence that the goods or services that they're purchasing come from a common source.One common mistake brand owners make is investing huge amounts of money in a brand without knowing if they can trademark it. We've seen so many people take all the time to build a brand, build a website, and get products with their labels, only to realize they can't get a trademark.The time and effort, and energy to rebrand or fight for a trademark isn't worth it.And a trademark doesn't have to be identical for your application to be turned down; it just has to be confusingly similar.On Amazon, sellers need a registered trademark to get the benefits of the brand registry, which are increasing by the day.We cannot overstate the importance of doing your trademark the right way for all Amazon sellers. Besides brand registry, it is a valuable asset that will add value to your future exit if you do it right.If you've ever wanted to know all about trademarks and the Amazon brand registry, this is your episode.

You can see her wonderful personality on her short video clips either on Instagram, Twitter or any other platform that she uses.

We walked with her through memory lane at University of Maryland, and San Francisco Conservatory of Music and her music experience in New York and several pit theatres and many stories.

We have always been fascinated with all things trademark - what's the difference between a copyright and a trademark? When is it okay to use images without a license? (Hint: NEVER!)  So we invited two local attorneys to school us in all things trademark and copyright. If you own a business, might open one, or you work for one... you need to listen to their advice! It may save you several thousand dollars.

On this episode, which is the last part of two (that is why the number is 195.) I started reading parts of my guest’s Thesis. The recording of this first part, we jumped immediately talking about her PhD titled: “Such Unfeminine Instruments,” Women Brass Musicians in America Before 1940”. On this last part, we continued our conversation on how women face business world, the difference or gap created by men when a woman wins a position in a highly regarded orchestra, more about her thesis, and, specially, four key words that are her bread and butter: EDUCATE, DEVELOP, SUPPORT and PROMOTE. Joana Ross Hersey is currently University of North Carolina at Pembroke Dean Associate on the Department of Music. If you want to know more about her Music Department, I bet that she will be happy to help you to determine if UNC is the perfect fit for you, I bet it will. We need more Deans like Joanna Ross Hersey.

The recording of this first part, we jumped immediately talking about her PhD titled: “Such Unfeminine Instruments,” Women Brass Musicians in America Before 1940”. On this first part, we talked a lot about her upbringing; her time with the US Coast Guard and how competitive it was; how UNC at Pembroke, where she is a Dean Associate on the Department of Music, approaches their student and prioritize on them (making a distinction of how education was viewed 20 or 30 years ago); and Music Business.
