Yenko brand reborn?

[Les Quam]

The surviving Yenko family members have never filed to obtain a trademark on the Yenko name. That does not mean they have waived their ownership rights to their name. We don't all have to run down and obtain a trademark on our names to prevent others from using it.

However once a trademark is granted it is a tangible property right until someone in this case the surviving Yenko family members go to court and enforce their inherent property rights which will supercede the present trademark rights owned by GMCI.

The Yenko family name is owned by the Yenko family and passed to Don Yenko's heirs upon his death. Until the Yenko heirs lawyer up people will continue to profit off Don Yenko's legacy.

All of which assumes that GMCI or the previous trademark owner hasn't already obtained the rights from the Yenko heirs? But as of September 2009 they had not.
