< p > defendant's trademark infringement has not been tried for IPO, /p >

< p > tracing back to history, Jordan first accused Jordan of sports infringement in 2012, which led to the abortion of Jordan sports in 2012.

In 2013, the role of the exchange, Jordan sports sue Jordan malicious lawsuit.

Both sides hold their own words.

A lawyer who did not want to be named said that Jordan's sports failed to catch up with IPO's first train and had something to do with the fact that the lawsuit between Jordan and Jordan took place after Jordan's sports meeting.

< p > in Jordan's trademark, Jeffrey Jordan, Markus Jordan, JIEFULIQIAODAN and MAKUSIQIAODAN are listed in the trademark.

These trademarks are the same as those of Michael Jordan's two sons, both in English and in Chinese.

If Jordan's other words and deeds were to be seen, it would depend on the evidence provided by Jordan sports.

In the short term, we can expand our brand's publicity and reduce costs by using other people's popularity. But in the long run, no independent brand will bring risks to enterprises, and even bring huge losses to enterprises.

Jordan sports listing process is affected by a typical example, and even the enterprise may lose the existing trademark because of litigation and need to re create the brand, this pformation cost is very big.
