Magic Missoni
from Fashion Law Network · host Kasia Zebrowska-Trauben MBA., Esq.
This episode is all about the Missoni fashion house. I begin with some brief history of Missoni, then I discuss the concept of patent inventorship and analyze some interesting patents and trademarks that Missoni owns. Finally, I provide my legal analysis of a situation where a non-inventor filed and obtained a design patent for a very popular it bag, a cautionary tale of sitting on your intellectual property rights! Episode Notes: 1. American Bar Association article "Employee Inventors and Patent Ownership: Whose Rights Are They Anyway?" 2. Trovan, Ltd. v. Sokymat SA, 299 F.3d 1292, 1302 (Fed. Cir. 2002)
