Deceptively Misdescriptive Marks at Law Glossary
What is it? Deceptively misdescriptive marks are those that incorrectly describe features of the underlying services or goods to which the mark is affixed. Like deceptive marks, deceptively misdescriptive marks tend to mislead consumers as to the underlying product. However, deceptively misdescriptive marks do not meet the requirements of a deceptive mark (i.e. bad intent or reliance by purchasers upon the misdescription). As such, deceptively misdescriptive marks can be registered on the Principal Register once they acquire secondary meaning.Legal Definition Added By: Keira
