Gibney IP Partner Angelo Mazza recently participated on behalf of several clients in the International Anticounterfeiting Coalition (IACC) sponsored virtual training for U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) personnel at the Port of Newark. The training bought together over 40 brands and 100 CBP personnel from Newark and around the country. CBP Officers, Import Specialists and FP&F personnel had the ability to watch presentations by brands based on type of commodity and set to run at specific times during the 3-day event.
Angelo has been involved in training programs for law enforcement at all levels for several decades. Not only is he a participant, but he is also a volunteer at the IACC, who coordinates the trainings, works on scheduling and has developed materials to allow better enforcement of IP laws. Over the years, Angelo has trained over 70,000 law enforcement personnel throughout the United States. Recognizing the importance of education as a way to develop enforcement skills, he has lectured on IP issues and developed the original IACC Training CD and then led the shift to an online and app based training tools.

This Saturday is Juneteenth, a day celebrating the end of slavery in America. It commemorates June 19, 1865 when Union troops led by Major General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas two months after the end of the Civil War and let the enslaved people of Texas know that they had been freed. Even though the war was over in April 1865 and the Emancipation Proclamation had been issued two years prior, it was not until the arrival of Union troops in Galveston that the enslaved people of Texas learned of their freedom.

In honor of the day, Gibney is supporting legal organizations that are combatting racial injustice:
