Opinions

Late yesterday the Federal Circuit released a nonprecedential order dismissing an appeal. This morning the court released a precedential opinion in a trademark case appealed from the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, along with another nonprecedential order dismissing another appeal. Here is the introduction to the opinion and links to the dismissals.

In re PT Medisafe Technologies (Precedential)

PT Medisafe Technologies (“Medisafe”) appeals from a decision of the United States Patent and Trademark Office’s (“PTO”) Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (“Board”) denying registration of its proposed mark. Because theBoard applied the correct test for determining whether a color mark is generic, and substantial evidence supports the Board’s determination that Medisafe’s proposed mark is generic, we affirm.
