Amazon Seeks Rejection of Renewed Dismissal Motion in TM Fraud Suit

Amazon has asked a Washington federal judge to reject a renewed motion to dismiss from a California attorney being sued for alleged participation in a trademark fraud scheme. The company claims the attorney is rehashing arguments from a prior motion filled with artificial intelligence-generated hallucinations. The filing, dated around July 20, 2026, maintains that the defense remains baseless. The suit alleges involvement in fraudulent trademark activities targeting the retailer. Court documents reference previous attempts to dismiss the claims that were unsuccessful. Amazon argues the renewed motion offers no new substantive grounds for dismissal. The case is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington before Judge Robert S. Lasnik. The attorney has not publicly responded to the latest filing. Such disputes highlight enforcement efforts against alleged trademark abuse in e-commerce. The proceedings continue without a ruling on the motion at this stage.
