In the case of *Major League Soccer L.L.C. v. Jordan Older* (Opposition Case No. 91240089), Major League Soccer, L.L.C. initiated an opposition on March 16, 2018 against the trademark application filed by Jordan Older for the mark “LOS ANGELES F.C.” under Serial No. 86335507. Although MLS disputed the application, Jordan Older eventually chose to voluntarily withdraw his trademark after it was published for opposition, with the application marked as “Abandoned – Express After Publication.”

The case, examined by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office’s Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB), followed the common practice in trademark law, whereby major corporations, such as Major League Soccer, aim to safeguard their brand by opposing smaller applications. Jordan Older, in spite of the opposition from MLS, managed to avoid a lengthy legal battle by deciding to abandon the application on his own terms, thereby avoiding likely costly and protracted litigation.

The opposition was managed by Interlocutory Attorney Jennifer Krisp, with legal assistant support from Nicole M. Thier. To begin, a notice was issued, and trial dates were set, with an answer due from Older by April 25, 2018. Nevertheless, the matter was swiftly concluded on April 5, 2018, when the case was terminated and terminated. The swift conclusion implies that Jordan Older successfully navigated the complexities of the opposition process by voluntarily abandoning the mark, resolving the case before any meaningful legal disputes arose.

This result shows Older’s ability to resolve the matter quickly, escaping what could have been an challenging legal dispute from a major sports entity. His decision to willingly abandon the mark shows read more his pragmatic decision, enabling him to avoid the expenses and protracted proceedings common in trademark disputes. While Major League Soccer’s opposition never reached a formal resolution through the TTAB, this case illustrates how individual applicants can take cautious legal decisions to avoid confrontations with large organisations without engaging in lengthy litigation.
