Continental Enterprises, is located at 1292 East 91 Street, Indianapolis, Indiana, 46240.
They have been involved in a great number of lawsuits, apparently on behalf of their clients. All of the lawsuits we have located list
Darlene Seymour as the attorney of record, and, more interestingly, she lists the very same address as
Continental Enterprises as well as listing Continental Enterprises as her employer.
We suppose that Darlene Seymour, Esquire, much like Willaim Mansfield, was unable to get a real job with a real law firm.
We wonder if she bills her clients the full monty for these filings since they are legally deficient, woefully inadequate and are simple cut-and-paste
documents that do not interfere with her leaving for happy hour. We are guessing she bills big bucks for a little work.
We are listing the recent lawsuits we have located. All of these lawsuits were originally filed in Indiana State Superior Court.
Even first year law students know one does not file federal complaints in state courts. Only federal courts can hear federal trademark
complaints. These all were moved to the federal circuit court in Indianapolis. We have linked to PDF files of the cases we have.
- Heineken vs. Gonzales Enterprises et al,
06CV1163, filed July 31, 2006 in Hamilton County Superior Court, charges violations of 15 U.S.C. §1114, 15 U.S.C. §1125(a),
and 15 U.S.C. §1125(c), while deliberately not saying much about the alleged infringement. Idiot General Counsel Darlene Seymour
filed a lawsuit in state court alleging federal violations. The state court does not have jurisdiction over federal offenses and her claims that
Indiana had jurisdiction was bogus at best. And her claims of forgery and counterfeiting do not meet the legal definitions ot either.
Lawsuit was voluntarily dismissed January 2007 because, according to Darlene Seymour, a settlement had been reached
