The below information is from public records freely available to everyone online. The opinions below are of my own, and should not be considered as facts. I am not an owner, partner, employee, or have any financial interest or financial gains or benefits from Commonwealth Canna LLC. I’m not trying to cause any business disruptions or anything malicious towards Canna. I have no interest in any financial gains from my actions. I only want to shine light on behaviors like this in the community and support change for the better.
The reason for this information being here is that the law firm protecting Canna’s brand and trademark has, in my opinion, over reached in their protection of it. We wish to open a discussion with Canna about their lawyers actions and resolve this as soon as possible.
The lawyers believe that any business using the word canna in their name is infringing on that trademark. Our opinion on this matter is that canna is a common community term and in common use among many official and unofficial brands. We argue that all of these brands have a right to use the common use word canna in their business names and brands.
If you agree with this opinion then feel free to reach out and contact Canna in a polite and courteous manner to discuss their lawyer’s actions.
