Last Chance Ranch, a well-regarded nonprofit animal shelter operating in Pennsylvania, recently initiated legal proceedings against its ex-executive director. The former director had previously faced accusations related to the theft of a kangaroo, and is now being sued for her alleged unauthorized use of the shelter’s name and trademarks. This suit is also extended to a newly established nonprofit.
The unnamed defendant, who held the position of executive director at the rescue center, is alleged to have created a separate nonprofit entity. The core issue it appears, is that she used the name and trademarks of Last Chance Ranch without obtaining any form of legal consent.
