During the 2014-2015 term, the Supreme Court added trademark law to its roster of IP decisions. In addition to setting new standards for review of patent claim construction decisions (Teva), the Court issued important trademark decisions, recasting the potential preclusive effect of TTAB decisions on likelihood of confusion (B & B Hardware), and concluding that trademark tacking (and the potential likelihood of confusion) is a question of fact for the jury (Hana Financial). And with upcoming decisions on post expiration royalties (Kimble) and defenses to a charge of inducement (Commil), this promises to be one of these most significant terms in recent memory. Join Anthony LoCicero of Amster Rothstein & Ebenstein as he discusses these decisions and their potential impacts on patent and trademark practice.
