Then you have a income tax liability to deal with.

When you surrender a life insurance policy for cash, you must include in income any proceeds that are more than the cost of the life insurance policy. In general, your cost (or investment in the contract) is the total of premiums that you paid for the life insurance policy, less any refunded premiums, rebates, dividends, or unrepaid loans that were not included in your income.

You should receive a Form 1099-R showing the total proceeds and the taxable part. Report these amounts on lines 16a and 16b of Form 1040 or on lines 12a and 12b of Form 1040A.

How long does it take for a trademark to lapse if not used?

If it was NEVER used then it was never a trademark and lapsed immediately. If if was used and then no longer used, then the amount of time to find it has lapsed may depend upon how long it would take for the consumers to forget who originally owned it. As for a US federal trademark registration, the registration will automatically lapse after six years unless a statement of use (and fees) is timely submitted, or after ten years if not renewed. The fact that a registration has lapsed does NOT mean the trademark has lapsed, as the owner of a trademark may have proprietary rights that transcend those provided by registration.
