1Opinion of the Court

LOURIE, Circuit Judge.

John V. Young appeals from the final decision of the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) which dismissed Young’s opposition against AGB Corporation’s registration of a steer statue as a service mark to designate its restaurant services. See Schilleci v. AGB Corp., Opp. No. 102,510 (TTAB Mar. 27, 1997), request for reconsideration denied, (TTAB June 13, 1997). Because the Board did not err in concluding that Young failed to plead a statutory ground for opposing AGB’s registration, we affirm.
