[QUOTE="Maggie Mae, post: 2352518, member: 322980734"] It really depends, and you'd best consult with an intellectual property attorney if unsure. Usage and likelihood of consumer confusion is key. As example, ACME Brick, ACME Staffing, and ACME Skateboards would be in different trademark goods categories, so allowed. But, buy something like [B]Starbucks[/B]DonutsAnd[B]Coffe[/B]eTampaDelivery and you can be in trouble. Because that is a category Starbucks the coffee co is branded in and no one would be able to use this domain without possible legal challenges. Even tho one would be national and the other local.
