| | Trademark - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The proper use of a trademark means using the mark as an adjective, not as a noun or a verb [3] [4] [5], though for certain trademarks, use as nouns and, less commonly, verbs is common. | | | Trademark licenses are commonly for a limited period and include appropriate warranties of quality by the licensee plus rights to inspect and monitor for quality control by the licensor. | | | Once trademark rights are established in a particular jurisdiction, these rights are generally only enforceable in that jurisdiction, a quality which is sometimes known as territoriality. |

| | Trademarks: Sounds, Colors and Scents - Making Sense of Trademarks |
| | For example, now that the United States Supreme Court has confirmed that trademark protection may exist for a single color[1], trademark owners in the United States may be even more tempted to adopt single color marks. | | | In view of the inconsistency in protection for sound marks, trademark owners with multinational interests must be wary of adopting such marks, since they will be difficult, if not impossible, to register at foreign trademark offices or protect in the courts of many jurisdictions. | | | Sound marks are neither registrable nor otherwise enforceable under related laws in many countries, such as China, Taiwan or Japan. |

| | The Trademark Registrability of the Harley-Davidson Roar: A Multimedia Analysis |
| | Unlike the Court in Qualitex, the PTO or a federal court will probably not have to address whether Harley's desired sound trademark is a "symbol" or "device" for purposes of the Lanham Act. | | | Acknowledging this difficulty, Harley will most likely be able to convince a court that its proposed trademark is a symbol, based on the expansive reading that the PTO and the U.S. Supreme Court have given to the term. | | | The sound does not identify and distinguish Harley's motorcycles from others or "indicate the source of the motorcycles," Honda claims in its notice of opposition. |
