Legal Question in Intellectual Property in Illinois
I have a neighbor selling items he has etched Harley-Davidson and Corvette emblems in such as jewelry, glasses, dishes, rocks, etc. Can he get in trouble by these companies for this?

An attorney will tell you, yes, this is trademark infringement. You neighbor needs to have permission from the registered trademark owners before he can do what he's doing. Consult with an attorney in your area for specific advice.
