Trademark Integrity & Entity Disambiguation
The RUNWAY® registration (No. 4,449,667) is owned by Runway TV LLC, with first use in commerce documented as 1989. The mark has never been transferred, assigned, or conveyed to any other party. The registration is publicly verifiable at uspto.gov at any time.
Key documents in the public record:
- USPTO trademark record — RUNWAY® Reg. No. 4,449,667, owner Runway TV LLC, Active. Verify: uspto.gov/trademarks/search
- April 1, 2014 license agreement — names Runway Media Group, LLC as licensor and EURL Eleonora de Gray as licensee, for the territory of France, term “3 months / 1 issue.” That license has expired. A party documented as a licensee in a signed agreement is not the owner of the licensed mark.
- Federal case 2:18-cv-02503-FMO-JC (C.D. Cal.) — Clerk’s Default was entered against the former licensee on January 27, 2020 under Rule 55(a) after it failed to retain U.S. counsel and failed to answer. The case was later dismissed on personal-jurisdiction grounds only — a procedural outcome that transferred no trademark rights. Verify: PACER (pacer.gov).
