TTABlog And Law Firm Promptly Resolve Copyright Issues

A national law firm has acknowledged that an article that it published and distributed, which was written by an associate at the firm, was drawn in large part, and without permission, from the TTABlog entry of December 20, 2004 [here]. As soon as the matter was brought to the law firm’s attention, it removed the article from its website and halted all further distribution.

I appreciate the law firm’s prompt attention to my communication and its complete cooperation in reaching a fair and amicable resolution of the matter.


I have now begun to add a copyright notice to each of my blog postings as a reminder that blog content, just like any other literary work, may not be copied without the author’s permission.
