Crimson Labs, Inc. has used the mark AZURE on cosmetics since 2011. In 2022, Crimson sells its business to Azurea Corp., including an express assignment of all marks used by Crimson, including AZURE, and the assignment is executed but not recorded with IPOPHL. The sale contract also provides a six-month transitional license allowing Crimson to continue using AZURE for existing packaging and marketing materials, after which the license terminates. In 2023, Azurea files for registration of AZURE for cosmetics and is granted registration. (a)Who owns the AZURE mark in 2023 between Crimson and Azurea, and why? (b)What is the effect of the failure to record the assignment with IPOPHL on Azurea’s rights against third parties who might use AZURE for cosmetics? (c)If Azurea subsequently records the assignment with IPOPHL, what is the effect on ownership and enforceability against third parties?

Choose the Best Answer

Crimson Labs, Inc. continues to own the AZURE mark in 2023 because the assignment has not been recorded, and ownership remains with the seller until IPOPHL records the assignment. Because the assignment was not recorded, Azurea cannot enforce against third parties who use AZURE in cosmetics; the rights are limited to the parties. Azurea owns the AZURE mark only for purposes of registration; enforcement against third parties requires recording of the assignment with IPOPHL. Azurea Corp. owns the AZURE mark in 2023 because the express assignment transfers ownership between the parties upon execution, even without IPOPHL recording, and the transitional license to Crimson does not negate ownership.
