U.S. Administration Stealing Trademark?

Trademark News, Trademark Issues

Larry Klayman, former Republican U.S. Senate candidate from Florida and founder of Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, sues the Bush administration for trademark infringement. Today, Larry Klayman went to the federal court in Miami to have the theft of his trademark “Freedom Watch” become a legal issue. At the launch of the “Freedom’s Watch” program, designed to raise support for the war in Iraq, Klayman was already warning the organizers that the title was trademarked.

Klayman has been using the term “Freedom Watch” already since November 2004, which means that the trademark was established already in November 2004. Klayman later officially registered the label “Freedom Watch” with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Klayman is very much angered by the use of “his” Freedom Watch as a way of promoting the Iraq war. The Freedom Watch that was established by Layman was meant to promote freedom and justice in the world. Layman himself is not in favour of the Bush Administration’s strategy in Iraq and does not want his Freedom Watch to be associated with and misused for, as he says, not the promotion of freedom but the promotion of civil war and chaos.
