Klayman Loses Trademark Fight Over Term ‘Freedom’s Watch’
The term “freedom’s watch” is not distinctive enough to warrant a trademark suit, a federal judge has ruled in a case that pitted a one-time hero of conservatives against President Bush’s former backers. Larry Klayman’s suit accused Freedom’s Watch of appropriating a name he had used to promote his public interest legal work. Judge Paul C. Huck concluded the name was too generic to deserve protection, and that Klayman’s efforts to associate the name Freedom Watch with his activities were “underwhelming.”
