Subject:Question on use of TM mark From:Nancy Hoft <itech -at- MV -dot- MV -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 27 Jan 1994 20:18:43 -0500
Does anyone know the "legal" rules to using the TM symbol for
trademarks? For instance, is it illegal to place the TM mark after a
marketing phrase that is not registered as a trademark?
