Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit

Decided September 10, 2018No. 2017-2361PublishedCited by 38 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

O'Malley, Circuit Judge.

Detroit Athletic Co. ("DACo") appeals from a decision of the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board affirming the Patent and Trademark Office's refusal to register DETROIT ATHLETIC CO. for sports apparel retail services. In that decision, the Board concluded that DACo's mark is likely to be confused with the third-party mark DETROIT ATHLETIC CLUB, registered for clothing goods. See In re Detroit Athletic Co. , No. 86625093, 2017 WL 2876815 (T.T.A.B. June 2, 2017). Because the Board's conclusion is predicated on factual findings supported by substantial evidence, we affirm.
