Last week, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC) heard oral arguments on two appeals of cases from the TTAB. I was fortunate to attend both in person. But because the CAFC posts the audio files from the arguments, you too can hear what a federal appellate court trademark oral argument is like.
2012-01-12 | 2011-1258 | LENS.COM V. 1-800 CONTACTS |
Registrant appealed the TTAB’s entry of summary judgment on grounds of abandonment which resulted in cancellation of the LENS registration for computer software.
2012-01-13 | 2011-1377 | SOUTHERN STATES V. COLOR ME MINE |
Applicant appealed the TTAB decision sustaining the Opposition and denying registration of the COLOR ME MINE mark.
