<h1>Silence Can Signal Consent: Rights Holders Risk Losing Legal Protections by Delaying Challenges to Potential Infringements</h1> A legal principle addressing conduct that implies consent or acceptance of another's actions, particularly in intellectual property disputes. Acquiescence involves knowingly allowing rights infringement without immediate objection, which can potentially create a defense against legal claims. The principle considers specific factors like plaintiff's knowledge, defendant's investment, and potential prejudice. Courts evaluate whether the delay or inaction amounts to implied permission, potentially preventing the original rights holder from seeking remedies if their conduct suggests acceptance of the situation.
