Legal Question
I had an idea for a t-shirt company, and to my dismay I found that a group of kids had already started to make t-shirts with the name I wanted to use. However I do not believe that they are a legitimate company and are just selling them out of their houses. So does this not count as use in commerce because they are not paying taxes and can I start a legitimate business using the same name and trademark it?
