Registering a trademark abandoned by someone else[ Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ Trademark Forum ] [ FAQ ] Posted by Christopher on December 11, 2001 at 12:09:54: I am interested in registering a trademark. Upon a trademark search, I discovered that the trademark had been previously registered by a large corporation for a very similar use, but had been intentionally abandoned (they filed an abandonment with the PTO many years ago as far as I can tell from the records). Would it be possible, or prudent, for me to register a trademark at this point? I imagine that I could ask them for rights, but they might either choose not to grant them, or it might take them forever to decide as it wouldn't be a priority issue for them. Anyone have any help to offer? Thanks, Christopher
