I don't know if Registered Trademarks have the Perpetuity you Claim.

Not being able to ever be legally abolished. I also don't think this all hinges on that. The issue is can the current ACC be legally dissolved by eight members? I already know your opinion on that. FSU and their cohorts driven into bankruptcy by endless lawsuits. FSU obviously would not want you as an Attorney. Perhaps we will see this play out. The FSU Chairman of the Board of Trustees is implying that something highly benefiting FSU on expansion is coming.

I still think ACC should let schools own their OOC TV revenues

Trademarks are only protected while they are being used.

ACC is a Registered Trademark just like the SEC

"The Beatles" trademark is still in use.

RonMexicoHokie • 08/02/23 02:41 PM ET
It has not been verified that 8 schools could dissolve the conference.
wwhokie1 • 08/02/23 10:54 PM ET
That would probably constitute tortious interference and be illegal. **

I guess the new ACC can be named The Rossington Collins Band. ;)**
