How to Select a Trademark

The selection of a trademark is much more than a simple legal decision. In fact, this choice is founded more in the strategy of your business and where you hope to be within your industry in the future.

When choosing a mark, you should keep in mind the categories that your mark might fall into.  Trademark attorneys will help determine which category fits your mark.

Generic marks

Generic marks cannot be registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.  These marks are so common that use of the mark will not provide you or your company with any distinction within the market.  Examples of generic trademarks include automobile, computer, and telephone.

If you are looking for a patent or trademark lawyer in the United States, reach out to Lawrence E. Evans by contacting him online today.

Hawaii Inmates Removed due to Sexual Assault Allegations

Hawaii Inmates Removed due to Sexual Assault Allegations

Honolulu criminal defense attorney Myles S. Breiner is representing a Hawaiian woman who was incarcerated at Otter Creek Correctional facility in  Kentucky and has filed a suit against the corporation running the prison. Mr. Breiner’s client is one of 19 women in the facility who came forward with allegations that she had been sexually abused by prison guards.

Hawaii prison officials disclosed that all 168 female inmates at the privately operated Kentucky prison will be relocated due to charges of sexual abuse by the prison guards. Forty of those inmates returned to Hawaii.

Investigators in Hawaii discovered that at least five corrections officials of the prison, including a chaplain, were charged with having sexual relations with the inmates within the last three years, and four have been convicted.

Three cases of rape involving guards and Hawaii inmates were recently turned over to the authorities. Kentucky State Police voiced that another case of sexual assault would lead right to a grand jury.

Tommy Johnson, deputy director of the Hawaii Department of Public Safety said he found that 81 percent of the Otter Creek workers were men and 19 percent were women, the reverse of what he said the ratio should be for a women’s prison. Mr. Johnson asked the company to hire more women, and it began a bonus program to do so.

For Honolulu criminal attorney Myles S. Breiner, “it is important for the clients to have their day in court and it is important to the state of Hawaii that they are responsible for all their citizens.”
