In September 2022, the Berean Church of Free Seventh-day Adventists and the International Association of Free Seventh-day Adventists were served a lawsuit from the General Conference Corporation of Seventh-day Adventists in Silver Spring, Maryland. This was quite unexpected because the General Conference attorneys initially stated that we have common law rights and the authority to use the Free Seventh-day Adventist name. At that time they acknowledged that we go back to the early 1900s and have the right to use the Free Seventh-day Adventist name because we predate their trademarks of 1981. However, in this recent lawsuit to us, they now allege that we do not have the right to use the Free Seventh-day Adventist name.
