Penn State Faces Backlash Over Trademark Dispute Tactics by Sports Merchandise Firms

Two sports merchandise companies have sharply criticized The Pennsylvania State University’s legal tactics in an ongoing trademark dispute. These companies, having been found to infringe on Penn State’s trademarks, are contesting the university’s recent legal motions. The university seeks attorney fees and a prohibition on the sale of infringing goods. The companies argue that the demand for attorney fees is grounded on “half-truths and misstatements,” while labeling the proposed ban as “breathtakingly broad” in its scope.
