New Balance argues that the stylized “K” in Decathlon’s Kiprun line infringes on its iconic “N” logo.

While the designs may appear distinct, some consumers have reportedly confused the two brands when seeing the shoes in public.

This raises an important trademark issue: post-sale confusion. What is it, and how can it affect your brand?

Discover what “post-sale confusion” means and why it is so important to test designs in a 3D, real-world environment.

After days of rain, the Corporate Run went on as planned last night, and Bryce McColskey showed up to represent Marks Gray.

Thankfully, the rain held off for most of the run, with just a light sprinkle along the way.

Bryce finished 118th out of 918 participants! Way to keep the tradition going!

A special evening for Marks Gray President, Frederick H. Kent, III he spoke at Florida State College at Jacksonville’s Kent Campus Diamond Anniversary Gala, celebrating 60 years.

Fred’s grandfather was instrumental in establishing Florida’s community college system and played a key role in the founding of what is now FSCJ in the 1960s. In recognition of his years of work and dedication to higher education, FSCJ’s Westside campus was named the Fred H. Kent Campus in his honor.

Fred was invited to share his grandfather’s story and his connection to the founding of FSCJ as part of the anniversary celebration.

At Marks Gray, we love Jacksonville history and the stories of the people who helped shape our community. We’re glad to celebrate this important part of Jacksonville’s history with FSCJ.

Does posting content online make it fair game for AI companies to use for training their models?

Major news organizations are pushing back and seeking compensation, as federal courts move closer to trial in cases involving the use of copyrighted content to train AI.

Crystal T. Broughan breaks down the arguments on both sides and what these developments could mean for businesses and content creators.

Read Crystal’s latest blog to learn more.

News outlets push for statutory licensing of their content by AI firms, arguing that the cost would equate to a “rounding error” for them.

Yesterday, Sondra Brunke, PHR and Jessica VanTroost attended Hubbard House’s annual flag planting event in front of the Duval County Clerk of Courts.

Each purple flag represents an Injunction for Protection filed in 2025. With more than 6,000 flags planted, the display serves as a visible reminder of the number of people who sought protection from domestic violence in our community last year.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, making this annual event an important reminder of the impact of domestic violence in our community and the resources available to those seeking help.
