Legal Term Cease and desist letter is A letter sent by a trademark owner demanding that another company immediately halt using its trademark. These letters are typically accompanied with a threat of a lawsuit if the alleged infringer does not immediately halt use. Before sending such a letter, it is vital that the initiator be 100% certain their rights in the mark are prior to the alleged infringers rights. Otherwise, it may be the initiator who must cease use.

Legal Term Grammatical rules when using marks is Failure to use the proper grammatical rules when using a trademark may result in the mark becoming generic, and thereby loosing all its protection. Specifically, it is very important to always use the mark as if it were an adjective, and never use it as a noun. For example, do not allow marketing material to read, Aurora is the best cat litter on the market. Instead say, Aurora brand cat litter is the best on the market, or even Aurora cat litter is the best.... This may seem a ridiculous distinction to some. However, the consequences for dismissing this advice are great. If your mark is challenged on the basis that it is generic, you will have a much harder time arguing that it is not generic when you have treated your mark as if it were a class of goods, rather than a single brand in a class of goods.

Legal Term Default is Failure to respond to a lawsuit.
