Libertarian National Committee Wins Preliminary Injunction in Michigan Trademark Litigation

US District Court Judge Judith Levy (Eastern District of Michigan) today delivered an oral opinion granting a Libertarian National Committee (LNC) request for a Preliminary Injunction denying the right of a group of Michigan Libertarians currently not recognized as the Libertarian Party of Michigan by the LNC to use the trademarked name Libertarian Party to identify their organization. A written opinion has not yet been issued but is expected in the very near future, possibly today.

  1. LNC = ONE MORE EVIL/VICIOUS GANG OF MONARCHS/OLIGARCHS

    DUE TO EVIL/VICIOUS ANTI-DEMOCRACY BYLAWS

    MODIFIED VERSION OF ELEPHANT BYLAWS IN EARLY 1970S

    P-A-T — ALSO FOR POLITICAL PARTIES

  2. Glad to see private property rights prevail. Hopefully it will hold up. I expect it will.

  3. DFR —

    STATE ASSUMED NAME LAW VS STATE BALLOT ACCESS LAW [NAME OF NEW/OLDE POLITICAL PARTY] ???

  4. Party name changes are not either. That’s why Michigan still has a US Taxpayers Party, which has long since become the Constitution Party in other states. If they change names they have to begin ballot access from scratch, which isn’t trivial in Michigan.
