I was just looking at the title of this page. I read where it said "Free Advice". If you should find reading some of the comments and questions, or responding in an informative manner to be a waste of time, perhaps you should save the time and keep your rude comments to yourself.
You may be...
Here's my 2 cents....
John did not have to agree to the immediate pat-down. He could have excused himself from entering the building any further when instructed to assume the position. At that point he could go to his car and remove any inappropriate items from his person. Then return and...
I think you may have a problem....
At the time the card was issued, you had not been prosecuted. So, at that time you were "free from criminal prosecution." However, here's where is the key word "remain" comes into play. After issuance of the card, you failed to "remain free from criminal...
Ok... I am not a lawyer, but...
Usually in the issuance of a registered trademark there are discalimers. For example, there a a trademark for "Think Big". But, their registration says "No claim is made to the exclusive right to use the word 'Big', apart from the mark as shown."
Based on that...
First, thank you providing the reference. I have read through a the rulings and appeal, as well as various commentary.
Based on my "Life Saver" example, I guess I can see how far from a cut-and-dried answer it is. Because one might first say that because my product would be commercial in...
Argument? I think not. I am much better at arguing if that's what I am out to do. :)

Can you explain what makes it infringement vs. parody vs. being its own unique product?
Here's where I could argue for any of these possibilities:
Infringement because...
What is the name of your state?DE
I am not sure how to determine the difference between trademark infringement and permitted use due to parody and neither of these. Let me provide an example to better explain.

What is the name of your state?DELAWARE (Town of Middletown, Inc.)
I have an issue with regard to a business that received a Conditional Use Permit to opperate their business in an area that it would not normally be allowed to opperate. This business followed the procedures of the incorporated...
Does "fair use" not apply?
On the face of the matter, I felt exactly as you have replied. But as I looked at the Fair Use guidelines, I became lass convinced that was the case. "Fair use" seems to permit publicly offering in a "library" sense the access (not duplication) of video...
Our business is in Delaware. Our company was featured on a segment during the local Philadelphia, PA news. We would like to make the video clip available for viewing on our website. Upon inquiry, the station told us it is a policy to not grant permission for any use of any portions of their...
