Question
I have heard that in Europe a trademark that is a parody of an existing more famous brand can be a trademark infringement, even though consumers don't really mix up the two. An example was the PUMA sports brand and a trademark called "POODLE". Could we now also be sued in the United States if we have a trademark that is a parody of a bigger more famous brand, if that brand is older than our trademark?
