And just like that...I'm back with season 4 of the podcast series! This episode is about yet another trademark infringement lawsuit Chanel is embroiled in involving a secondary market reseller, an independent US based jewelry company which was selling jewelry using repurposed Chanel buttons. I also discuss the first sale doctrine and the various patents and trademarks that the Chanel fashion house owns. 

Episode Notes: 

1. Chanel, Inc. v. Shiver and Duke, LLC, et al., 1:21-cv-01277 (SDNY).
