Bill Summary

AN ACT To modify the prohibition on recognition by United States courts of certain rights relating to certain marks, trade names, or commercial names.

AI Summary

This bill, the "No Stolen Trademarks Honored in America Act of 2023", modifies the existing prohibition on U.S. courts and executive branch entities from recognizing certain rights related to trademarks, trade names, or commercial names that were used in connection with businesses or assets that were previously confiscated. The key changes include expanding the prohibition to cover executive branch entities, removing the requirement that the rights be asserted by a "designated national", and adding a new provision that the prohibition only applies if the person or entity asserting the rights knew or had reason to know that the mark, trade name, or commercial name was the same as or substantially similar to one used in connection with a confiscated business or assets.
