[E-trademarks] Dirt Candy TM Dispute

[Daniel Feigelson]

Why not file for declaratory judgment of non-infringement in TX? Get a
friendly local jury, force the other party to travel...if the restaurant
owner really felt there was infringement - and I don't see how anyone other
than a lawyer blinded by greed might see likelihood of confusion here - and
that somehow her NY restaurant would be hurt because a small farm half a
continent away was using the same name, maybe she'd be willing to pay for
the process, and maybe not.

Seems to me that that route, while certainly more expensive than trying to
get a TM registration, stood a much better chance than trying to get a
registration (which, even if obtained, wouldn't have disposed of the
restaurant owner's claim).
