Yesterday I was at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in Richmond, Virginia
“Not every frowning cartoon cat infringes; or at least plaintiff has failed to persuade that its intellectual property reaches that far.” — #ILND (h/t @cahwit) #trademarktwitter #trademark #ScheduleA storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
The TMA created two new mechanisms, expungement and reexamination, to challenge trademark registrations. The USPTO now publishes a list of registrations subject to one of these new petitions. #trademark #uspto #tma uspto.gov/trademarks/app…

DAKOTA DITCHEVA GETS THE 6 POINT FINISH!! #PFLRegularSeason LIVE NOW 🇺🇸ESPN2 🌎 pfl.info/WatchNow
Opinions may vary, but: Professors shouldn’t scream at law students. Judges shouldn’t scream at lawyers. Adults in power shouldn’t scream at other adults. It just makes the screamer look like, to use a recent term used by Justice Kagan at oral argument, a nutcase. Screaming in…
Early in my career I was yelled at for using “which” when I should have used “that,” and I cried, and then the partner sent an senior associate to make sure I was billing for the discussion and revisions (yelling and crying).
@TudorsAndTMs My partner @GigerLaw pointed this out to me--thanks for the primer!
doner haus counters: “presumably when people want to indulge in ‘hardcore sex videos’ on pornhub there is a chance that they get so confused by our logo that they end up buying a sandwich at our store instead."
intentionally taking less perfect pics is a weird thing for trademark lawyers to have to do but here we are
Does anybody else feel ridiculous telling their clients their specimen looks too nice and they need to take a photograph in a messy location? Trying to save time on the front end and avoid those "digitally altered" rejections! LOL
Today I had the absolute pleasure of testifying at the @uspto TPAC hearing on TM fee increases. I took this photo after and there appears to be a window washer saying hi. It was a great experience and I think we should all contribute to the gov’t processes in our niche.
I will die on the hill that these kinds of edits are nothing more than a useless power flex on the part of senior assoc that clients should not, in any way, under any circumstances, be getting billed for. So thankful to not be working with people like this
@1dgrn Like, I’m nice and friendly. If you want to sound like you’re grumpy old self then you are a big boy, you can send the email yourself lmao
Great news, the USPTO website is actually working today!

Apropos of today’s ~Discourse, here’s me dressed as a Cold Call for 2L Halloween. An outfit I’m still quite fond/proud of.
Being a trademark lawyer is kind of ridiculous sometimes because I’m currently grabbing screenshots from a DJ Khaled music video to prove that my client’s products are popular. Like, I went to law school for this.
I was just informed that my client’s LLC name is also the name of a lewd act and I didn’t realize FOR MONTHS. MONTHS! of saying very genuinely that I represent [lewd act]. 😩
editing cases for my course on trademarks in the music industry week 2 opens with: is CRUNK JUICE generic for an alcoholic beverage, specifically one made from red bull & hennessy?
It's amazing to look back over 2022 and see how much my life has changed since it started. I'm now in a job that fulfills and challenges me, which has done immeasurable good for my mental health! It's much easier to pursue my solo firm and writing goals when I'm actually happy./
@cahwit @TimberlakeLaw @legallysocial Ed: I will drop U! Is that a threat?!?
While talking about the Bad Spaniels case with a colleague, he reminded me of Dumb Starbucks. I totally forgot about Dumb Starbucks! This happened when I was in law school and I clearly remember all of us IP kids going.....What? youtube.com/watch?v=h0TRpG…
