1Opinion of the Court
RADER, Circuit Judge.
Metro Traffic Control, Inc. (Metro Traffic) appeals the August 25, 1996, decision of the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (the Board) denying Metro Traffic’s petition to cancel Citi Traffic Corporation’s (Citi Traffic) service mark Registration No. 1,363,743 for “SHADOW TRAFFIC.” Metro Traffic seeks cancellation due to Metro Traffic’s alleged prior use of the registered mark and Citi Traffic’s alleged fraud in the procurement of its registration. Because the Board based its decision on a clearly erroneous factual finding, this court vacates and remands.
