Delaware Trademark Act

The Trademark Act governs the registration and protection of trademarks under state law. It establishes a registration system administered by the state — defining key terms and which marks may be registered, prescribing how an application is made and filed, providing for a certificate of registration with a set duration and a renewal process, and covering classification, official records, the recording of assignments and changes of name, and the grounds and procedure for cancellation. It also creates liability for infringement, for fraudulent registration, and for dilution or injury to business reputation, and specifies the remedies available to a mark owner.
